kvm: svm: reset mmu on VCPU reset
When INIT/SIPI sequence is sent to VCPU which before that was in use by OS, VMRUN might fail with: KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0xffffffff EAX=00000000 EBX=00000000 ECX=00000000 EDX=000006d3 ESI=00000000 EDI=00000000 EBP=00000000 ESP=00000000 EIP=00000000 EFL=00000002 [-------] CPL=0 II=0 A20=1 SMM=0 HLT=0 ES =0000 00000000 0000ffff 00009300 CS =9a00 0009a000 0000ffff 00009a00 [...] CR0=60000010 CR2=b6f3e000 CR3=01942000 CR4=000007e0 [...] EFER=0000000000000000 with corresponding SVM error: KVM: FAILED VMRUN WITH VMCB: [...] cpl: 0 efer: 0000000000001000 cr0: 0000000080010010 cr2: 00007fd7fe85bf90 cr3: 0000000187d0c000 cr4: 0000000000000020 [...] What happens is that VCPU state right after offlinig: CR0: 0x80050033 EFER: 0xd01 CR4: 0x7e0 -> long mode with CR3 pointing to longmode page tables and when VCPU gets INIT/SIPI following transition happens CR0: 0 -> 0x60000010 EFER: 0x0 CR4: 0x7e0 -> paging disabled with stale CR3 However SVM under the hood puts VCPU in Paged Real Mode* which effectively translates CR0 0x60000010 -> 80010010 after svm_vcpu_reset() -> init_vmcb() -> kvm_set_cr0() -> svm_set_cr0() but from kvm_set_cr0() perspective CR0: 0 -> 0x60000010 only caching bits are changed and commit d81135a57aa6 ("KVM: x86: do not reset mmu if CR0.CD and CR0.NW are changed")' regressed svm_vcpu_reset() which relied on MMU being reset. As result VMRUN after svm_vcpu_reset() tries to run VCPU in Paged Real Mode with stale MMU context (longmode page tables), which causes some AMD CPUs** to bail out with VMEXIT_INVALID. Fix issue by unconditionally resetting MMU context at init_vmcb() time. * AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual, Volume 2: System Programming, rev: 3.25 15.19 Paged Real Mode ** Opteron 1216 Signed-off-by: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com> Fixes: d81135a57aa6 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
