    KVM: nVMX: Open a window for pending nested VMX preemption timer · d2060bd4
    Sean Christopherson 提交于
    Add a kvm_x86_ops hook to detect a nested pending "hypervisor timer" and
    use it to effectively open a window for servicing the expired timer.
    Like pending SMIs on VMX, opening a window simply means requesting an
    immediate exit.
    
    This fixes a bug where an expired VMX preemption timer (for L2) will be
    delayed and/or lost if a pending exception is injected into L2.  The
    pending exception is rightly prioritized by vmx_check_nested_events()
    and injected into L2, with the preemption timer left pending.  Because
    no window opened, L2 is free to run uninterrupted.
    
    Fixes: f4124500 ("KVM: nVMX: Fully emulate preemption timer")

    [Check it in kvm_vcpu_has_events too, to ensure that the preemption
     timer is serviced promptly even if the vCPU is halted and L1 is not
     intercepting HLT. - Paolo]
