[PATCH 4.3 010/157] KVM: svm: unconditionally intercept #DB

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jan 27 2016 - 14:03:12 EST


4.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cbdb967af3d54993f5814f1cee0ed311a055377d upstream.

This is needed to avoid the possibility that the guest triggers
an infinite stream of #DB exceptions (CVE-2015-8104).

VMX is not affected: because it does not save DR6 in the VMCS,
it already intercepts #DB unconditionally.
