RE: [PATCH v3 0/2] KVM: SVM: Create separate vmcbs for L1 and L2

[Babu Moger <babu.moger@amd.com>]

Hi Cathy,
I was going to test these patches. But it did not apply on my tree.
Tried on kvm(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git) and
Mainline
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git). What
is your base tree?
thanks
Babu

> Changes:
> v2 -> v3
>  - Added vmcb switching helper.
>  - svm_set_nested_state always forces to L1 before determining state
>    to set. This is more like vmx and covers any potential L2 to L2 nested state
> switch.
>  - Moved svm->asid tracking to pre_svm_run and added ASID set dirty bit
>    checking.
> 
> v1 -> v2
>  - Removed unnecessary update check of L1 save.cr3 during nested_svm_vmexit.
>  - Moved vmcb01_pa to svm.
>  - Removed get_host_vmcb() function.
>  - Updated vmsave/vmload corresponding vmcb state during L2
>    enter and exit which fixed the L2 load issue.
>  - Moved asid workaround to a new patch which adds asid to svm.
>  - Init previously uninitialized L2 vmcb save.gpat and save.cr4
> 
> Tested:
> kvm-unit-tests
> kvm self tests
> Loaded fedora nested guest on fedora
