[PATCH] target/i386: do not set unsupported VMX secondary execution controls
Posted by Vitaly Kuznetsov 4 years ago
Commit 048c95163b4 ("target/i386: work around KVM_GET_MSRS bug for
secondary execution controls") added a workaround for KVM pre-dating
commit 6defc591846d ("KVM: nVMX: include conditional controls in /dev/kvm
KVM_GET_MSRS") which wasn't setting certain available controls. The
workaround uses generic CPUID feature bits to set missing VMX controls.

It was found that in some cases it is possible to observe hosts which
have certain CPUID features but lack the corresponding VMX control.

In particular, it was reported that Azure VMs have RDSEED but lack
VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_RDSEED_EXITING; attempts to enable this feature
bit result in QEMU abort.

Resolve the issue but not applying the workaround when we don't have
to. As there is no good way to find out if KVM has the fix itself, use
95c5c7c77c ("KVM: nVMX: list VMX MSRs in KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST") instead
as these [are supposed to] come together.

Hi Vitaly

thanks for raising this, unfortunately this patch didn't work for me, I still get the same error:

So we're apparently trying to enable both RDSEED_EXITING and SHADOW_VMCS
which are missing.

So you would think that would tkae care of RDSEED exiting - but what
about VMCS shadowing?

SECONDARY_EXEC_SHADOW_VMCS is special, we are able to emulate it in KVM
even when it is not supported by hardware, see
nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs():

	/*
	 * We can emulate "VMCS shadowing," even if the hardware
	 * doesn't support it.
	 */
	msrs->secondary_ctls_high |=
		SECONDARY_EXEC_SHADOW_VMCS;

Are you trying that on top of 5.0 or ontop of the older 4.2 world?

If my reading of 0x1582e00000000 is correct then we have:

So we're apparently trying to enable both RDSEED_EXITING and SHADOW_VMCS

Does you kernel have 95c5c7c77c ("KVM: nVMX: list VMX MSRs in
KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST")?
