[PATCH v2 16/22] KVM: nVMX: Prioritize SMI over nested IRQ/NMI

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Sat Apr 25 2020 - 03:02:13 EST


From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@xxxxxxxxx>

Check for an unblocked SMI in vmx_check_nested_events() so that pending
SMIs are correctly prioritized over IRQs and NMIs when the latter events
will trigger VM-Exit. This also fixes an issue where an SMI that was
marked pending while processing a nested VM-Enter wouldn't trigger an
immediate exit, i.e. would be incorrectly delayed until L2 happened to
take a VM-Exit.

Fixes: 64d6067057d96 ("KVM: x86: stubs for SMM support")
