Currently the MMU's ->new_cr3() callback does nothing when guest paging is disabled or when two-dimentional paging (e.g. EPT on Intel) is active. This means that an emulated write to cr3 can be lost; kvm_set_cr3() will write vcpu-arch.cr3, but the GUEST_CR3 field in the VMCS will retain its old value and this is what the guest sees. This bug did not have any effect until now because: - with unrestricted guest, or with svm, we never emulate a mov cr3 instruction - without unrestricted guest, and with paging enabled, we also never emulate a mov cr3 instruction - without unrestricted guest, but with paging disabled, the guest's cr3 is ignored until the guest enables paging; at this point the value from arch.cr3 is loaded correctly my the mov cr0 instruction which turns on paging However, the patchset that enables big real mode causes us to emulate mov cr3 instructions in protected mode sometimes (when guest state is not virtualizable by vmx); this mov cr3 is effectively ignored and will crash the guest. The fix is to make nonpaging_new_cr3() call mmu_free_roots() to force a cr3 reload. This is awkward because now all the new_cr3 callbacks to the same thing, and because mmu_free_roots() is somewhat of an overkill; but fixing that is more complicated and will be done after this minimal fix. Observed in the Window XP 32-bit installer while bringing up secondary vcpus. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> |
