Consider the case that userspace enables KVM_CAP_HYPERV_ENLIGHTENED_VMCS twice:
1) kvm_vcpu_ioctl_enable_cap() is called to enable
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_ENLIGHTENED_VMCS which calls nested_enable_evmcs().
2) nested_enable_evmcs() sets enlightened_vmcs_enabled to true and fills
vmcs_version which is then copied to userspace.
3) kvm_vcpu_ioctl_enable_cap() is called again to enable
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_ENLIGHTENED_VMCS which calls nested_enable_evmcs().
4) This time nested_enable_evmcs() just returns 0 as
enlightened_vmcs_enabled is already true. *Without filling
vmcs_version*.
5) kvm_vcpu_ioctl_enable_cap() continues as usual and copies
*uninitialized* vmcs_version to userspace which leads to kernel info-leak.
Fix this issue by simply changing nested_enable_evmcs() to always fill
vmcs_version output argument. Even when enlightened_vmcs_enabled is
already set to true.
Note that SVM's nested_enable_evmcs() should not be modified because it
always returns a non-zero value (-ENODEV) which results in
kvm_vcpu_ioctl_enable_cap() skipping the copy of vmcs_version to
userspace (as it should).

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.
