vmm_exclusive=0 leads to KVM setting X86_CR4_VMXE always and calling VMXON only when the vcpu is loaded. X86_CR4_VMXE is used as an indication in cpu_emergency_vmxoff() (called on kdump) if VMXOFF has to be called. This is obviously not the case if both are used independtly. Calling VMXOFF without a previous VMXON will result in an exception. In addition, X86_CR4_VMXE is used as a mean to test if VMX is already in use by another VMM in hardware_enable(). So there can't really be co-existance. If the other VMM is prepared for co-existance and does a similar check, only one VMM can exist. If the other VMM is not prepared and blindly sets/clears X86_CR4_VMXE, we will get inconsistencies with X86_CR4_VMXE. As we also had bug reports related to clearing of vmcs with vmm_exclusive=0 this seems to be pretty much untested. So let's better drop it. While at it, directly move setting/clearing X86_CR4_VMXE into kvm_cpu_vmxon/off. Signed-off-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
