Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the kvm tree got a conflict in:

arch/x86/kvm/mmu.h

between commit:

d0ec49d4de90 ("kvm/x86/svm: Support Secure Memory Encryption within KVM")

from the tip tree and commit:

d1cd3ce90044 ("KVM: MMU: check guest CR3 reserved bits based on its physical address width.")

from the kvm tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.


Thomas L., Ingo,

this is completely wrong:


static inline u64 rsvd_bits(int s, int e)
{
- return ((1ULL << (e - s + 1)) - 1) << s;
+ return __sme_clr(((1ULL << (e - s + 1)) - 1) << s);
}

First, rsvd_bits is just a simple function to return some 1 bits. Applying
a mask based on properties of the host MMU is incorrect.

Second, the masks computed by __reset_rsvds_bits_mask also apply to
guest page tables, where the C bit is reserved since we don't emulate
SME.

Something like this:

Thanks Paolo, Brijesh and I will test this and make sure everything works
properly with this patch.

Thanks,
Tom

Can you please fix it up? Please Cc me at paolo.bonzini@xxxxxxxxx too
because I'll be on vacation next week.

(And thanks Stephen for the heads-up!)
