I did this more explicitly as:
vmcs_writel(GUEST_CR3, get_vmcs12_fields(vcpu)->guest_cr3);
vcpu->arch.cr3 = get_vmcs12_fields(vcpu)->guest_cr3;
load_pdptrs(vcpu, vcpu->arch.walk_mmu, vcpu->arch.cr3);
vmcs_write64(GUEST_PDPTR0, vcpu->arch.mmu.pdptrs[0]);
vmcs_write64(GUEST_PDPTR1, vcpu->arch.mmu.pdptrs[1]);
vmcs_write64(GUEST_PDPTR2, vcpu->arch.mmu.pdptrs[2]);
vmcs_write64(GUEST_PDPTR3, vcpu->arch.mmu.pdptrs[3]);
I'm still working on trying to simplify this code - I'll indeed try to see if
I can use kvm_set_cr3 instead. Thanks for the suggestion.
However, Even if it works, I have a concern on how nested vmx might brake in
the future if kvm_set_cr3 is changed in some way that is irrelevant to nested.
