Bug ID: 204175
Summary: Segmentation: incorrect base calculation in VMX
Product: Virtualization
Version: unspecified
Kernel Version: 5.*
Hardware: Intel
OS: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: kvm
Assignee: virtualization_kvm@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
Reporter: max@m00nbsd.net
Regression: No
In vmx/nested.c::get_vmx_mem_address(), when the guest runs in long mode, the
base address of the memory operand is computed with a simple:
*ret = s.base + off;
This is incorrect, the base applies only to FS and GS, not to the others.
Because of that, if the guest uses a VMX instruction based on DS and has a
DS.base that is non-zero, KVM wrongfully adds the base to the resulting
address.
