[PATCH 4.12 36/99] KVM: x86: block guest protection keys unless the host has them enabled

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 28 2017 - 04:09:03 EST


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

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

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit c469268cd523245cc58255f6696e0c295485cb0b upstream.

If the host has protection keys disabled, we cannot read and write the
guest PKRU---RDPKRU and WRPKRU fail with #GP(0) if CR4.PKE=0. Block
the PKU cpuid bit in that case.

This ensures that guest_CR4.PKE=1 implies host_CR4.PKE=1.
