Subject[PATCH 5/5] KVM: x86: add capability to get/set CPL
Date
Until now, KVM used to assume that CS.RPL could always be used as the CPL
value when KVM_SET_SREGS is called. Unfortunately this is not the case.
If userspace decides to call KVM_GET_SREGS/KVM_SET_SREGS exactly after
CR0.PE has been set to 1, but before the long jump that reloads CS, the
CPL will be reset to bits 0-1 of CS (aka CS.RPL). This can work or not,
depending on the placement of the code that transitions to protected
mode. If CS.RPL != 0 the emulator will see CS.RPL != CS.DPL (the DPL
will always be zero) and fail to fetch the next instruction of the
transition code.

To trigger this using QEMU, it is enough to send "info cpus" continuously
while running iPXE (which places its code for real->protected mode in
the EBDA). iPXE does a lot of transitions, and the guest will crash
very quickly.
