Attempt to modify vcpu->run->s.regs _after_ the sanity checks performed by KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS's arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:sync_regs(). This can lead to some nonsensical vCPU states accompanied by kernel splats, e.g. disabling PAE while long mode is enabled makes KVM all kinds of confused: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1142 at arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h:358 paging32_walk_addr_generic+0x431/0x8f0 [kvm] arch/x86/kvm/mmu/paging_tmpl.h: KVM_BUG_ON(is_long_mode(vcpu) && !is_pae(vcpu), vcpu->kvm) Signed-off-by: Michal Luczaj <mhal@rbox.co> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230728001606.2275586-3-mhal@rbox.co [sean: see link] Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
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.
