Linux kernel source tree
a506fdd223
Undesired triple fault gets injected to L1 guest on SVM when L2 is
launched with certain CR3 values. #TF is raised by mmu_check_root()
check in fast_pgd_switch() and the root cause is that when
kvm_set_cr3() is called from nested_prepare_vmcb_save() with NPT
enabled CR3 points to a nGPA so we can't check it with
kvm_is_visible_gfn().
Using generic kvm_set_cr3() when switching to nested guest is not
a great idea as we'll have to distinguish between 'real' CR3s and
'nested' CR3s to e.g. not call kvm_mmu_new_pgd() with nGPA. Following
nVMX implement nested-specific nested_svm_load_cr3() doing the job.
To support the change, nested_svm_load_cr3() needs to be re-ordered
with nested_svm_init_mmu_context().
Note: the current implementation is sub-optimal as we always do TLB
flush/MMU sync but this is still an improvement as we at least stop doing
kvm_mmu_reset_context().

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.
