    KVM: nVMX: Preserve exception priority irrespective of exiting behavior · 6ce347af
    Sean Christopherson authored
    Short circuit vmx_check_nested_events() if an exception is pending and
    needs to be injected into L2, priority between coincident events is not
    dependent on exiting behavior.  This fixes a bug where a single-step #DB
    that is not intercepted by L1 is incorrectly dropped due to servicing a
    VMX Preemption Timer VM-Exit.
    
    Injected exceptions also need to be blocked if nested VM-Enter is
    pending or an exception was already injected, otherwise injecting the
    exception could overwrite an existing event injection from L1.
    Technically, this scenario should be impossible, i.e. KVM shouldn't
    inject its own exception during nested VM-Enter.  This will be addressed
    in a future patch.
    
    Note, event priority between SMI, NMI and INTR is incorrect for L2, e.g.
    SMI should take priority over VM-Exit on NMI/INTR, and NMI that is
    injected into L2 should take priority over VM-Exit INTR.  This will also
    be addressed in a future patch.
