Subject: [PATCH v3 06/11] KVM: nVMX: Release enlightened VMCS on VMCLEAR
Date: Wed, 26 May 2021 15:20:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210526132026.270394-7-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210526132026.270394-1-vkuznets@redhat.com>

Unlike VMREAD/VMWRITE/VMPTRLD, VMCLEAR is a valid instruction when
enlightened VMCS is in use. TLFS has the following brief description:
"The L1 hypervisor can execute a VMCLEAR instruction to transition an
enlightened VMCS from the active to the non-active state". Normally,
this change can be ignored as unmapping active eVMCS can be postponed
until the next VMLAUNCH instruction but in case nested state is migrated
with KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE/KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE, keeping eVMCS mapped
may result in its synchronization with VMCS12 and this is incorrect:
L1 hypervisor is free to reuse inactive eVMCS memory for something else.

Inactive eVMCS after VMCLEAR can just be unmapped.
