Subject: [PATCH] KVM: VMX: check nested state and CR4.VMXE against SMM
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2018 00:42:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1537396942-30774-1-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

VMX cannot be enabled under SMM, check it when CR4 is set and when nested
virtualization state is restored.

This should fix some WARNs reported by syzkaller, mostly around
alloc_shadow_vmcs.
