From: Felipe Franciosi <[email protected]> commit 384dea1c9183880be183cfaae161d99aafd16df6 upstream.
When userspace configures KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP, KVM will manage the presence of X86_EFLAGS_TF via kvm_set/get_rflags on vcpus. The actual rflag bit is therefore hidden from callers. That includes init_emulate_ctxt() which uses the value returned from kvm_get_flags() to set ctxt->tf. As a result, x86_emulate_instruction() will skip a single step, leaving singlestep_rip stale and not returning to userspace. This resolves the issue by observing the vcpu guest_debug configuration alongside ctxt->tf in x86_emulate_instruction(), performing the single step if set.
