Configurar vmx-\u0026gt;fail y sintetizar una VM-Exit es contradictorio y incorrecto: (a) es imposible tener VM-Fail y VM-Exit (b) vmcs.EXIT_REASON no se modifica en VM-Fail (c) emulation_required se refiere al estado invitado y las comprobaciones del estado invitado son siempre salidas de VM, no fallas de VM. Para KVM espec\u00edficamente, emulation_required se maneja antes de las salidas anidadas en __vmx_handle_exit(), por lo que configurar vmx-\u0026gt;fail no tiene un efecto inmediato, es decir, las llamadas de KVM a handle_invalid_guest_state() y vmx-\u0026gt;fail se ignoran. Configurar vmx-\u0026gt;fail puede, en \u00faltima instancia, generar una ADVERTENCIA en nested_vmx_vmexit() al desactivar la VM, ya que KVM nunca espera que vmx-\u0026gt;fail se configure cuando L2 est\u00e1 activo, KVM siempre refleja esos errores en L1. ------------[ cortar aqu\u00ed ]------------ ADVERTENCIA: CPU: 0 PID: 21158 en arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:4548 nested_vmx_vmexit+0x16bd/0x17e0 arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:4547 M\u00f3dulos vinculados en: CPU: 0 PID: 21158 Comm: syz-executor.1 No contaminado 5.16.0-rc3-syzkaller #0 Nombre de hardware: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 RIP: 0010:nested_vmx_vmexit+0x16bd/0x17e0 arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:4547 C\u00f3digo: \u0026lt;0f\u0026gt; 0b e9 2e f8 ff ff e8 57 b3 5d 00 0f 0b e9 00 f1 ff ff 89 e9 80 Seguimiento de llamadas: vmx_leave_nested arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:6220 [en l\u00ednea] nested_vmx_free_vcpu+0x83/0xc0 arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c: 330 vmx_free_vcpu+0x11f/0x2a0 arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c:6799 kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy+0x6b/0x240 arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:10989 kvm_vcpu_destroy+0x29/0x90 arch/x86/kvm/.. /. ./../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:441 kvm_free_vcpus arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:11426 [en l\u00ednea] kvm_arch_destroy_vm+0x3ef/0x6b0 arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:11545 kvm_destroy_vm arch/x86/ kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:1189 [en l\u00ednea] kvm_put_kvm+0x751/0xe40 arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c :1220 kvm_vcpu_release+0x53/0x60 arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:3489 __fput+0x3fc/0x870 fs/file_table.c:280 task_work_run+0x146/0x1c0 kernel/ task_work.c:164 exit_task_work include/linux/task_work.h:32 [en l\u00ednea] do_exit+0x705/0x24f0 kernel/exit.c:832 do_group_exit+0x168/0x2d0 kernel/exit.c:929 get_signal+0x1740/0x2120 kernel/se\u00f1al .c:2852 arch_do_signal_or_restart+0x9c/0x730 arch/x86/kernel/signal.c:868 handle_signal_work kernel/entry/common.c:148 [en l\u00ednea] exit_to_user_mode_loop kernel/entry/common.c:172 [en l\u00ednea] exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0x191/ 0x220 kernel/entry/common.c:207 __syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work kernel/entry/common.c:289 [en l\u00ednea] syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x2e/0x70 kernel/entry/common.c:300 do_syscall_64+0x53/0xd0 arch/x86/entry/common. c:86 entrada_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae\"}],\"metrics\":{},\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a80dfc025924024d2c61a4c1b8ef62b2fce76a04\",\"source\":\"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\"},{\"url\":\"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e4e4e7cb229821cd215031abc47efdab5486a67c\",\"source\":\"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\"}]}}"
