Preserve the host's FREEZE_IN_SMM setting by stuffing GUEST_DEBUGCTL, so that SMM activity doesn't bleed into PMU events while running the guest. Along the way, enforce the supported set of DEBUGCTL bits when processing vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL, as KVM can't rely on hardware to reject an MSR value that is supported in hardware. To minimize the probability of the nVMX fix breaking existing setups, allow the guest to use DEBUGCTL.RTM_DEBUG if RTM is exposed to the guest. v6: - WARN in tdx_vcpu_run() if KVM requests DR6 load. - Ignore unsupported-but-suppressed DEBUGCTL bits when doing consistency check on vmcs12. - Add support for DEBUGCTL.RTM_DEBUG. - Use accessors in all paths. - Add a dedicated vmx_reload_guest_debugctl(). v5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250522005555.55705-1-mlevitsk@xxxxxxxxxx Maxim Levitsky (3): KVM: nVMX: Check vmcs12->guest_ia32_debugctl on nested VM-Enter KVM: VMX: Wrap all accesses to IA32_DEBUGCTL with getter/setter APIs KVM: VMX: Preserve host's DEBUGCTLMSR_FREEZE_IN_SMM while running the guest Sean Christopherson (5): KVM: TDX: Use kvm_arch_vcpu.host_debugctl to restore the host's DEBUGCTL KVM: x86: Convert vcpu_run()'s immediate exit param into a generic bitmap KVM: x86: Drop kvm_x86_ops.set_dr6() in favor of a new KVM_RUN flag KVM: VMX: Allow guest to set DEBUGCTL.RTM_DEBUG if RTM is supported KVM: VMX: Extract checking of guest's DEBUGCTL into helper arch/x86/include/asm/kvm-x86-ops.h | 1 - arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_host.h | 15 ++++++-- arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h | 1 + arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c | 14 ++++---- arch/x86/kvm/vmx/common.h | 2 -- arch/x86/kvm/vmx/main.c | 17 +++------ arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c | 21 ++++++++--- arch/x86/kvm/vmx/pmu_intel.c | 8 ++--- arch/x86/kvm/vmx/tdx.c | 24 ++++++------- arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c | 57 ++++++++++++++++++------------ arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.h | 26 ++++++++++++++ arch/x86/kvm/vmx/x86_ops.h | 4 +-- arch/x86/kvm/x86.c | 25 ++++++++++--- 13 files changed, 140 insertions(+), 75 deletions(-) base-commit: 61374cc145f4a56377eaf87c7409a97ec7a34041 -- 2.50.0.rc0.642.g800a2b2222-goog
