KVM: VMX: Fix commit which broke PML
I found PML was broken since below commit: commit feda805fe7c4ed9cf78158e73b1218752e3b4314 Author: Xiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao@linux.intel.com> Date: Wed Sep 9 14:05:55 2015 +0800 KVM: VMX: unify SECONDARY_VM_EXEC_CONTROL update Unify the update in vmx_cpuid_update() Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao@linux.intel.com> [Rewrite to use vmcs_set_secondary_exec_control. - Paolo] Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> The reason is in above commit vmx_cpuid_update calls vmx_secondary_exec_control, in which currently SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML bit is cleared unconditionally (as PML is enabled in creating vcpu). Therefore if vcpu_cpuid_update is called after vcpu is created, PML will be disabled unexpectedly while log-dirty code still thinks PML is used. Fix this by clearing SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML in vmx_secondary_exec_control only when PML is not supported or not enabled (!enable_pml). This is more reasonable as PML is currently either always enabled or disabled. With this explicit updating SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML in vmx_enable{disable}_pml is not needed so also rename vmx_enable{disable}_pml to vmx_create{destroy}_pml_buffer. Fixes: feda805fe7c4ed9cf78158e73b1218752e3b4314 Signed-off-by: Kai Huang <kai.huang@linux.intel.com> [While at it, change a wrong ASSERT to an "if". The condition can happen if creating the VCPU fails with ENOMEM. - Paolo] Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
