[PATCH v4 07/12] KVM: nVMX: Make an event request if INIT or SIPI is pending on VM-Enter

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Tue Sep 20 2022 - 20:33:46 EST


Evaluate interrupts, i.e. set KVM_REQ_EVENT, if INIT or SIPI is pending
when emulating nested VM-Enter. INIT is blocked while the CPU is in VMX
root mode, but not in VMX non-root, i.e. becomes unblocked on VM-Enter.
This bug has been masked by KVM calling ->check_nested_events() in the
core run loop, but that hack will be fixed in the near future.

- * Usually this would be handled by the processor noticing an
- * IRQ/NMI window request, or checking RVI during evaluation of
- * pending virtual interrupts. However, this setting was done
- * on VMCS01 and now VMCS02 is active instead. Thus, we force L0
- * to perform pending event evaluation by requesting a KVM_REQ_EVENT.
+ * Re-evaluate pending events if L1 had a pending IRQ/NMI/INIT/SIPI
+ * when it executed VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME, as entering non-root mode can
+ * effectively unblock various events, e.g. INIT/SIPI cause VM-Exit
+ * unconditionally.
