To mitigate the page size change MCE vulnerability (CVE-2018-12207), ACRN would clear the execution permission in the EPT paging-structure entries for large pages and then intercept an EPT execution-permission violation caused by an attempt to execution an instruction in the guest. However, the current code would clear the execution permission in the EPT paging- structure entries for small pages too when we clearing the the execution permission for large pages. This would trigger extra EPT violation VM exits. This patch fix this issue. Signed-off-by: Li Fei1 <fei1.li@intel.com> Acked-by: Eddie Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> Tracked-On: #5788 |

ACRN Hypervisor ############### The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the "ACRN Device Model". The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and embedded devices. You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_ website. .. _`Project ACRN`: https://projectacrn.org .. _`ACRN Hypervisor`: https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor .. _`Project ACRN documentation`: https://projectacrn.github.io/
