Lai Jiangshan a217a6593c KVM/VMX: Invoke NMI non-IST entry instead of IST entry ... In VMX, the host NMI handler needs to be invoked after NMI VM-Exit. Before commit 1a5488ef0d ("KVM: VMX: Invoke NMI handler via indirect call instead of INTn"), this was done by INTn ("int $2"). But INTn microcode is relatively expensive, so the commit reworked NMI VM-Exit handling to invoke the kernel handler by function call. But this missed a detail. The NMI entry point for direct invocation is fetched from the IDT table and called on the kernel stack. But on 64-bit the NMI entry installed in the IDT expects to be invoked on the IST stack. It relies on the "NMI executing" variable on the IST stack to work correctly, which is at a fixed position in the IST stack. When the entry point is unexpectedly called on the kernel stack, the RSP-addressed "NMI executing" variable is obviously also on the kernel stack and is "uninitialized" and can cause the NMI entry code to run in the wrong way. Provide a non-ist entry point for VMX which shares the C-function with the regular NMI entry and invoke the new asm entry point instead. On 32-bit this just maps to the regular NMI entry point as 32-bit has no ISTs and is not affected.
