Changes since v2 [Sean]: - Tweak a comment in PATCH5. - Add Reviewed-by: tags to PATCHes 3 and 5.
Original description:
Windows 11 with enabled Hyper-V role doesn't boot on KVM when Enlightened VMCS interface is provided to it. The observed behavior doesn't conform to Hyper-V TLFS. In particular, I'm observing 'VMREAD' instructions trying to access field 0x4404 ("VM-exit interruption information"). TLFS, however, is very clear this should not be happening:
"Any VMREAD or VMWRITE instructions while an enlightened VMCS is active is unsupported and can result in unexpected behavior."
Microsoft confirms this is a bug in Hyper-V which is supposed to get fixed eventually. For the time being, implement a workaround in KVM allowing VMREAD instructions to read from the currently loaded Enlightened VMCS.
Patches 1-2 are unrelated fixes to VMX feature MSR filtering when eVMCS is enabled. Patches 3 and 4 are preparatory changes, patch 5 implements the workaround.
Vitaly Kuznetsov (5): KVM: nVMX: Also filter MSR_IA32_VMX_TRUE_PINBASED_CTLS when eVMCS KVM: nVMX: eVMCS: Filter out VM_EXIT_SAVE_VMX_PREEMPTION_TIMER KVM: nVMX: Rename vmcs_to_field_offset{,_table} KVM: nVMX: Implement evmcs_field_offset() suitable for handle_vmread() KVM: nVMX: Allow VMREAD when Enlightened VMCS is in use
