Looks some MSR writing issues such a failed entry.
If you're running a guest on an Intel machine without unrestricted mode
support, the failure can be most likely due to the guest entering an
invalid
state for Intel VT. For example, the guest maybe running in big real
mode
which is not supported on less recent Intel processors.

And I don't see any obvious wrong as well. Any valuable info from dmesg?
With the simple qemu command above, on 3.18.1 I see:
kern.info: kvm: zapping shadow pages for mmio generation wraparound
when I fire up a full guest that's actually useful I get:
kern.info: kvm: zapping shadow pages for mmio generation wraparound
kern.err: kvm [4073]: vcpu0 disabled perfctr wrmsr: 0xc1 data 0xffff
On 3.18.0-rc3-00042-g34a1cd6 nothing appears in the dmesg, just the
message I mention above to stderr. Same thing with a stock
3.19.0-rc1. Once I apply your patch the simple test command produces
the same zapping shadow pages messages as 3.18.1, and a test guest of
a Debian Jessie image (w/stock distro kernel) produces the same thing
with disabled perfctr wrmsr message. However, it doesn't look like
Sorry I'm not sure if I understood current status. Looks 3.19-rc1 & my
patch just fix that error above,
KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0x80000021
...
Right?
I'm entirely out of the woods, because one of my other guest VMs with a
custom kernel that works great under 3.18.1 now fails to run. Nothing
in dmesg, but here's the stderr:
But even you revert 34a1cd60d17 or just apply my patch, something else
introduced between 3.18.1 and 3.19-rc1 led this error below, right?
KVM internal error. Suberror: 1

FWIW, I get the same thing with 34a1cd60d17 reverted. Maybe there are
two bugs, maybe there's more to this first one. I can repro this
So if my understanding is correct, this is probably another bug. And
especially, I already saw the same log in another thread, "Cleaning up
the KVM clock". Maybe you can continue to `git bisect` to locate that
bad commit.
Looks just now Andy found that commit,
0e60b0799fedc495a5c57dbd669de3c10d72edd2 "kvm: change memslot sorting rule
from size to GFN", maybe you can try to revert this to try yours again.
That doesn't revert cleanly for me, and I don't have much time to
fiddle with it until the 24th---so checked out the commit before it
(d4ae84a0), applied your patch, built, and yes, everything works fine
at that point. I'll probably have time for another full bisection
later, assuming things aren't ironed out already by then.
Could you try this to fix your last error?
