[PATCH v2 0/6] Enhance event delivery error handling
Posted by Ivan Orlov 1 week, 5 days ago
Currently, the situation when guest accesses MMIO during vectoring is
handled differently on VMX and SVM: on VMX KVM returns internal error,
when SVM goes into infinite loop trying to deliver an event again and
again.

This patch series eliminates this difference by returning a KVM internal
error when guest performs MMIO during vectoring for both VMX and SVM.

Also, introduce a selftest test case which covers the error handling
mentioned above.

V1 -> V2:
- Make commit messages more brief, avoid using pronouns
- Extract SVM error handling into a separate commit
- Introduce a new X86EMUL_ return type and detect the unhandleable
vectoring error in vendor-specific check_emulate_instruction instead of
handling it in the common MMU code (which is specific for cached MMIO)

Ivan Orlov (6):
  KVM: x86: Add function for vectoring error generation
  KVM: x86: Add emulation status for vectoring during MMIO
  KVM: VMX: Handle vectoring error in check_emulate_instruction
  KVM: SVM: Handle MMIO during vectroing error
  selftests: KVM: extract lidt into helper function
  selftests: KVM: Add test case for MMIO during vectoring
