From: Sean Christopherson seanjc@google.com Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2021 01:49:44 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nVMX: Emulate guest TLB flush on nested VM-Enter with new vpid12
Fully emulate a guest TLB flush on nested VM-Enter which changes vpid12, i.e. L2's VPID, instead of simply doing INVVPID to flush real hardware's TLB entries for vpid02. From L1's perspective, changing L2's VPID is effectively a TLB flush unless "hardware" has previously cached entries for the new vpid12. Because KVM tracks only a single vpid12, KVM doesn't know if the new vpid12 has been used in the past and so must treat it as a brand new, never been used VPID, i.e. must assume that the new vpid12 represents a TLB flush from L1's perspective.
For example, if L1 and L2 share a CR3, the first VM-Enter to L2 (with a VPID) is effectively a TLB flush as hardware/KVM has never seen vpid12 and thus can't have cached entries in the TLB for vpid12.
