    KVM: VMX: hide flexpriority from guest when disabled at the module level · 2cf7ea9f
    Paolo Bonzini 提交于
    As of commit 8d860bbe ("kvm: vmx: Basic APIC virtualization controls
    have three settings"), KVM will disable VIRTUALIZE_APIC_ACCESSES when
    a nested guest writes APIC_BASE MSR and kvm-intel.flexpriority=0,
    whereas previously KVM would allow a nested guest to enable
    VIRTUALIZE_APIC_ACCESSES so long as it's supported in hardware.  That is,
    KVM now advertises VIRTUALIZE_APIC_ACCESSES to a guest but doesn't
    (always) allow setting it when kvm-intel.flexpriority=0, and may even
    initially allow the control and then clear it when the nested guest
    writes APIC_BASE MSR, which is decidedly odd even if it doesn't cause
    functional issues.
    
    Hide the control completely when the module parameter is cleared.
