Liran Alon 52ad7eb3d6 KVM: nVMX: vmcs12 revision_id is always VMCS12_REVISION even when copied from eVMCS
vmcs12 represents the per-CPU cache of L1 active vmcs12.

This cache can be loaded by one of the following:
1) Guest making a vmcs12 active by exeucting VMPTRLD
2) Guest specifying eVMCS in VP assist page and executing
VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME.

Either way, vmcs12 should have revision_id of VMCS12_REVISION.
Which is not equal to eVMCS revision_id which specifies used
VersionNumber of eVMCS struct (e.g. KVM_EVMCS_VERSION).

Specifically, this causes an issue in restoring a nested VM state
because vmx_set_nested_state() verifies that vmcs12->revision_id
is equal to VMCS12_REVISION which was not true in case vmcs12
was populated from an eVMCS by vmx_get_nested_state() which calls
copy_enlightened_to_vmcs12().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
