Sadly, kvm unit tests run fail on nested vmware and make the CentOS 7.3(with kmod 4.4.11) crashed... Well, so that should be reported to vmware. :-)

As far as i know, when kvm enters guest after handling EPT_MISCONFIG, seabios should return from mmio write and wait for virtio backend(qemu) to handle this mmio writing. What puzzles me: 1) i can not understand why kvm runs in infinite loop and seabios does not return from writew. From the trace in L1 guest, it did not hang in KVM, as it went into guest mode normally. 2) kvm nested kvm is ok. But vmware nested kvm is not ok. This problem has anything related with vmware? It is the issue in vmware, i guess the RIP register is not handled correctly. BTW, does kvm unit tests run well on nested vmware?
