[PATCH 3.10 19/24] nEPT: Nested INVEPT

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Dec 14 2014 - 15:23:20 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nadav Har'El <nyh@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit bfd0a56b90005f8c8a004baf407ad90045c2b11e upstream.

If we let L1 use EPT, we should probably also support the INVEPT instruction.

In our current nested EPT implementation, when L1 changes its EPT table
for L2 (i.e., EPT12), L0 modifies the shadow EPT table (EPT02), and in
the course of this modification already calls INVEPT. But if last level
of shadow page is unsync not all L1's changes to EPT12 are intercepted,
which means roots need to be synced when L1 calls INVEPT. Global INVEPT
should not be different since roots are synced by kvm_mmu_load() each
time EPTP02 changes.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
- Adjust context, filename
- Simplify handle_invept() as recommended by Paolo - nEPT is not
supported so we always raise #UD]
