[PATCH 0/3] KVM, pkeys: fix handling of PKRU across migration

Show all headers | View raw

The host pkru is restored right after vcpu exit (commit 1be0e61), so
KVM_GET_XSAVE will return the host PKRU value instead.  In general,
the PKRU value in vcpu->arch.guest_fpu.state cannot be trusted.

Series as follows:

1) fix independent bug which would cause an oops

2) remove an unnecessary abstraction

3) fix the bug

Please test the patches, as I don't have the affected hardware.  Note
that I need the results before tomorrow in order to send these patches
to Linus before going on vacation.

Thanks,

Paolo
