Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: X86: Fix operand size during instruction decoding

From: Pedro Fonseca
Date: Tue Oct 31 2017 - 22:35:32 EST


This patch fixes the problem and passes my tests on the CS.DB field, this includes the "push es" and the "high 16-bits of ESP" test cases.

Pedro reported:
During tests that we conducted on KVM, we noticed that executing a "PUSH %ES"
instruction under KVM produces different results on both memory and the SP
register depending on whether EPT support is enabled. With EPT the SP is
reduced by 4 bytes (and the written value is 0-padded) but without EPT support
it is only reduced by 2 bytes. The difference can be observed when the CS.DB
field is 1 (32-bit) but not when it's 0 (16-bit).

The internal segment descriptor cache exist even in real/vm8096 mode. The CS.D
also should be respected instead of just default operand-size/66H prefix during
instruction decoding. This patch fixes it by also adjusting operand-size according
to CS.D.

v1 -> v2:
* respect cs.d for real/vm8096, other modes have already
been considered in init_emulate_ctxt().
