Don't attempt to load PDPTRs if EFER.LME=1, i.e. if 64-bit mode is
enabled. A recent change to reload the PDTPRs when CR0.CD or CR0.NW is
toggled botched the EFER.LME handling and sends KVM down the PDTPR path
when is_paging() is true, i.e. when the guest toggles CD/NW in 64-bit
mode.
Split the CR0 checks for 64-bit vs. 32-bit PAE into separate paths. The
64-bit path is specifically checking state when paging is toggled on,
i.e. CR0.PG transititions from 0->1. The PDPTR path now needs to run if
the new CR0 state has paging enabled, irrespective of whether paging was
already enabled. Trying to shave a few cycles to make the PDPTR path an
"else if" case is a mess.

The other way to fix this, with a much smaller diff stat, is to simply
move the !is_page(vcpu) check inside (vcpu->arch.efer & EFER_LME). But
that results in a ridiculous amount of nested conditionals for what is a
very straightforward check e.g.
if (cr0 & X86_CR0_PG) {
if (vcpu->arch.efer & EFER_LME) }
if (!is_paging(vcpu)) {
...
}
}
}
Since this doesn't need to be backported anywhere, I didn't see any value
in having an intermediate step.

it seems we have more than one occurance of "if (vcpu->arch.efer &
EFER_LME)" under "#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64" and we alredy have
static inline int is_long_mode(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
return vcpu->arch.efer & EFER_LMA;
#else
return 0;
#endif
}
so if we use this instead, the compilers will just throw away the
non-reachable blocks when !(#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64), right?

EFER.LME vs. EFER.LMA. The kvm_set_cr0() check is specifically looking at
the case where EFER.LME=1, EFER.LMA=0, and CR0.PG is being toggled on, i.e.
long mode is being enabled. EFER_LMA won't be set until vmx_set_cr0() does
enter_lmode().

Oops, shame on me :-(
Would it make sense to introduce something like is_long_mode()
(e.g. is_efer_lme()) for LME and #ifdef CONFIG_X86_64? I see the
same checks in vmx_set_cr0()/svm_set_cr0())?

Oops!
I don't think "is_paging()" is relevant here, so much as "EFER.LME=1."
As you note below, KVM *should* go down the PDPTR path when
is_paging() is true and EFER.LME=0.

It's relevant for the EFER.LME=1 case as it's used to detect CR0.PG 0->1.
Though maybe we're in violent agreement?

We're in agreement conceptually, but I find your original text lacking

Ping. This really needs to be in the initial pull for 5.9, as is kvm/queue

I agree completely, but I am curious what guest you have that toggles
CD/NW in 64-bit mode.

It's my OVMF build. I assume it's MTRR programming, but I haven't bothered
to debug that far. Nor do I want to, the EDKII build framework makes my
head explode :-).

I also investigated this issue (also same thing, OVMF doesn't boot),
and after looking at the intel and amd's PRM, this looks like correct solution.
I also tested this and it works.
