commitcb49631ad1upstream. Don't inject a #UD if KVM attempts to "emulate" to skip an instruction for an SEV guest, and instead resume the guest and hope that it can make forward progress. When commit04c40f344d("KVM: SVM: Inject #UD on attempted emulation for SEV guest w/o insn buffer") added the completely arbitrary #UD behavior, there were no known scenarios where a well-behaved guest would induce a VM-Exit that triggered emulation, i.e. it was thought that injecting #UD would be helpful. However, now that KVM (correctly) attempts to re-inject INT3/INTO, e.g. if a #NPF is encountered when attempting to deliver the INT3/INTO, an SEV guest can trigger emulation without a buffer, through no fault of its own. Resuming the guest and retrying the INT3/INTO is architecturally wrong, e.g. the vCPU will incorrectly re-hit code #DBs, but for SEV guests there is literally no other option that has a chance of making forward progress. Drop the #UD injection for all "skip" emulation, not just those related to INT3/INTO, even though that means that the guest will likely end up in an infinite loop instead of getting a #UD (the vCPU may also crash, e.g. if KVM emulated everything about an instruction except for advancing RIP). There's no evidence that suggests that an unexpected #UD is actually better than hanging the vCPU, e.g. a soft-hung vCPU can still respond to IRQs and NMIs to generate a backtrace.

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.
