There is no easy way to force KVM to run an instruction through the emulator (by design as that will expose the x86 emulator as a significant attack-surface). However, we do wish to expose the x86 emulator in case we are testing it (e.g. via kvm-unit-tests). Therefore, this patch adds a "force emulation prefix" that is designed to raise #UD which KVM will trap and it's #UD exit-handler will match "force emulation prefix" to run instruction after prefix by the x86 emulator. To not expose the x86 emulator by default, we add a module parameter that should be off by default. A simple testcase here: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #define HYPERVISOR_INFO 0x40000000 #define CPUID(idx, eax, ebx, ecx, edx) \ asm volatile (\ "ud2a; .ascii \"kvm\"; cpuid" \ :"=b" (*ebx), "=a" (*eax), "=c" (*ecx), "=d" (*edx) \ :"0"(idx) ); void main() { unsigned int eax, ebx, ecx, edx; char string[13]; CPUID(HYPERVISOR_INFO, &eax, &ebx, &ecx, &edx); *(unsigned int *)(string + 0) = ebx; *(unsigned int *)(string + 4) = ecx; *(unsigned int *)(string + 8) = edx; string[12] = 0; if (strncmp(string, "KVMKVMKVM\0\0\0", 12) == 0) printf("kvm guest\n"); else printf("bare hardware\n"); } Suggested-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Liran Alon <liran.alon@oracle.com> Cc: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> Cc: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Cc: Liran Alon <liran.alon@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com> [Correctly handle usermode exits. - Paolo] Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
