PATCH 1/1 x86: svm: Always clear event_inj on vmexit

We currently only clear SVM_EVTINJ_VALID after successful interrupt delivery. This apparently does not match real hardware which clears the whole event_inj field on every vmexit, including unsuccessful interrupt delivery.

Erik, please confirm that this works for you.

Hi,

We currently only clear SVM_EVTINJ_VALID after successful interrupt delivery. This apparently does not match real hardware which clears the whole event_inj field on every vmexit, including unsuccessful interrupt delivery.

Thanks for the patch. It is a bit hard for me to test right now as I messed up my test setup, but I will do so ASAP and let you know.

However, I'm worried that this patch may introduce a new problem (I may be mistaken though). There is still this code to load the exit interrupt info:

stl_phys(env->vm_vmcb + offsetof(struct vmcb,
control.exit_int_info_err),
ldl_phys(env->vm_vmcb + offsetof(struct vmcb,
control.event_inj_err)));

Now that event_inj is no longer loaded, won't this mean that exit_int_info and exit_int_info_err also won't be loaded?

With kind regards,
Erik

Sorry, can't follow this ATM. But maybe you mean this: there is indeed a problem with removing the clearance of event_inj.invalid as it may be later on transferred into exit_int_info. And if we succeed with injecting the event, that field must not remaind valid.

OK, here is v2:

Correct.

I tested this and AFAICS this one works fine and fixes the problem.

Thanks,
