KVM: nVMX: Immediately refresh APICv controls as needed on nested VM-Exit
If an APICv status updated was pended while L2 was active, immediately refresh vmcs01's controls instead of pending KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE as kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() only calls into vendor code if a change is necessary. E.g. if APICv is inhibited, and then activated while L2 is running: kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> apic->apicv_active = true | -> vmx_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl() | -> vmx->nested.update_vmcs01_apicv_status = true | -> return Then L2 exits to L1: __nested_vmx_vmexit() | -> kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE) vcpu_enter_guest(): KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE -> kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> return // because if (apic->apicv_active == activate) Reported-by: Chao Gao <chao.gao@intel.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aQ2jmnN8wUYVEawF@intel.com Fixes: 7c69661e225c ("KVM: nVMX: Defer APICv updates while L2 is active until L1 is active") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dongli Zhang <dongli.zhang@oracle.com> [sean: write changelog] Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251205231913.441872-3-seanjc@google.com Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
