From a8b6fda38f80e75afa3b125c9e7f2550b579454b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Mattson Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 11:52:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kvm: vmx: Do not disable intercepts for BNDCFGS MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The MSR permission bitmaps are shared by all VMs. However, some VMs may not be configured to support MPX, even when the host does. If the host supports VMX and the guest does not, we should intercept accesses to the BNDCFGS MSR, so that we can synthesize a #GP fault. Furthermore, if the host does not support MPX and the "ignore_msrs" kvm kernel parameter is set, then we should intercept accesses to the BNDCFGS MSR, so that we can skip over the rdmsr/wrmsr without raising a #GP fault.
