We need two #PF to fix its shadow page table - sometimes, say a exception is triggered during vm-exit caused by #PF (see handle_exception() in vmx.c), we remove all the shadow pages shadowed by the target gfn before go into page fault path, it will cause infinite loop: delete shadow pages shadowed by the gfn -> try to use large page size to map the gfn -> retry the access ->... To fix these, we can adjust page size early if the target gfn is used as page table Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti --- diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c b/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c index 2a3c890..54fc61e 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c @@ -2380,15 +2380,10 @@ static int set_spte(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, u64 *sptep, if (pte_access & ACC_WRITE_MASK) { /* - * There are two cases: - * - the one is other vcpu creates new sp in the window - * between mapping_level() and acquiring mmu-lock. - * - the another case is the new sp is created by itself - * (page-fault path) when guest uses the target gfn as - * its page table. - * Both of these cases can be fixed by allowing guest to - * retry the access, it will refault, then we can establish - * the mapping by using small page. + * Other vcpu creates new sp in the window between + * mapping_level() and acquiring mmu-lock.
