Re: [Xen-devel] Crash of guest with nested vmx with Unknown nested vmexit reason 80000021.

2015-04-07 Thread Li, Liang Z
Hi All,

   I found a way to preproduce the bug very easy by using the 
apic-send_IPI_all(NMI_VECTOR)
 in L2 in a kernel module to trigger MNI. And I have verified that the bug can 
be fixed as Jan's
 suggestion, ' the second half of vmx_idtv_reinject() needs to be done without 
regard to
 nestedhvm_vcpu_in_guestmode(v)', I will send a patch later.

Liang

 Hi Jan,
 
 I am sorry, But  had the impression you were somehow the owner of these
 feature. My mistake.
 I understand the feature is in preview, But are you feeling intense presure
 when I ask for some status every 2 months? :-))
 
 
 BR,

  Thanks for asking, but to be honest I don't understand why you're (not
  the first time iirc) pinging me rather than the VMX maintainers who
  had promised to do that work. All I can say is that I'm being told
  it's still on their todo list, but no-one has found time yet. And
  please remember that all of nested virt is still marked preview, i.e.
  not fully supported - for reasons like the bug here.

  Just yesterday we were told by Intel that they still can't foresee
  when they will find time.
