From ca3cc405a3bc6cf11530235d0f70703150ef83b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2025 17:25:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Move handling of is_guest_mode() into fastpath exit handlers [ Upstream commit bf1a49436ea37b98dd2f37c57608951d0e28eecc ] Let the fastpath code decide which exits can/can't be handled in the fastpath when L2 is active, e.g. when KVM generates a VMX preemption timer exit to forcefully regain control, there is no "work" to be done and so such exits can be handled in the fastpath regardless of whether L1 or L2 is active. Moving the is_guest_mode() check into the fastpath code also makes it easier to see that L2 isn't allowed to use the fastpath in most cases, e.g. it's not immediately obvious why handle_fastpath_preemption_timer() is called from the fastpath and the normal path.
