[PATCH 09/14] KVM: selftests: Fix vmxon_pa == vmcs12_pa == -1ull vmx_set_nested_state_test for !eVMCS case

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Wed Oct 25 2023 - 11:25:41 EST


The "vmxon_pa == vmcs12_pa == -1ull" test happens to work by accident: as
Enlightened VMCS is always supported, set_default_vmx_state() adds
'KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS' to 'flags' and the following branch of
vmx_set_nested_state() is executed:

if ((kvm_state->flags & KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS) &&
(!guest_can_use(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_VMX) ||
!vmx->nested.enlightened_vmcs_enabled))
return -EINVAL;

as 'enlightened_vmcs_enabled' is false. In fact, "vmxon_pa == vmcs12_pa ==
-1ull" is a valid state when not tainted by wrong flags so the test should
aim for this branch:

if (kvm_state->hdr.vmx.vmxon_pa == INVALID_GPA)
return 0;

Test all this properly:
- Without KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS in the flags, the expected return value is
'0'.
- With KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS flag (when supported) set, the expected
return value is '-EINVAL' prior to enabling eVMCS and '0' after.
