    KVM: nVMX: Fail on MMIO completion for nested posted interrupts · 0fe998b2
    Jim Mattson authored
    When the kernel has no mapping for the vmcs02 virtual APIC page,
    userspace MMIO completion is necessary to process nested posted
    interrupts. This is not a configuration that KVM supports. Rather than
    silently ignoring the problem, try to exit to userspace with
    KVM_INTERNAL_ERROR.
    
    Note that the event that triggers this error is consumed as a
    side-effect of a call to kvm_check_nested_events. On some paths
    (notably through kvm_vcpu_check_block), the error is dropped. In any
    case, this is an incremental improvement over always ignoring the
    error.
