[ Upstream commitf6ab0107a4] Define PT_MAX_FULL_LEVELS as PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL, i.e. 5, to fix shadow paging for 5-level guest page tables. PT_MAX_FULL_LEVELS is used to size the arrays that track guest pages table information, i.e. using a "max levels" of 4 causes KVM to access garbage beyond the end of an array when querying state for level 5 entries. E.g. FNAME(gpte_changed) will read garbage and most likely return %true for a level 5 entry, soft-hanging the guest because FNAME(fetch) will restart the guest instead of creating SPTEs because it thinks the guest PTE has changed. Note, KVM doesn't yet support 5-level nested EPT, so PT_MAX_FULL_LEVELS gets to stay "4" for the PTTYPE_EPT case. Fixes:855feb6736("KVM: MMU: Add 5 level EPT & Shadow page table support.")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
