Rework detecting hardware enabling errors to use a local variable in the "enable all" path to track whether or not enabling was successful across all CPUs. Using a global variable complicates paths that enable hardware only on the current CPU, e.g. kvm_resume() and kvm_online_cpu(). Opportunistically add a WARN if hardware enabling fails during kvm_resume(), KVM is all kinds of hosed if CPU0 fails to enable hardware. The WARN is largely futile in the current code, as KVM BUG()s on spurious faults on VMX instructions, e.g. attempting to run a vCPU on CPU if hardware enabling fails will explode. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:508! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 3 PID: 1009 Comm: CPU 4/KVM Not tainted 6.1.0-rc1+ #11 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 RIP: 0010:kvm_spurious_fault+0xa/0x10 Call Trace: vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs+0x192/0x230 [kvm_intel] vmx_vcpu_load+0x16/0x60 [kvm_intel] kvm_arch_vcpu_load+0x32/0x1f0 vcpu_load+0x2f/0x40 kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x19/0x9d0 kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x271/0x660 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x80/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x2b/0x50 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 But, the WARN may provide a breadcrumb to understand what went awry, and someday KVM may fix one or both of those bugs, e.g. by finding a way to eat spurious faults no matter the context (easier said than done due to side effects of certain operations, e.g. Intel's VMCLEAR).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
