[v2,7/7] KVM: nVMX: Assert that vcpu->mutex is held when accessing secondary VMCSes

Commit Message

Sean Christopherson Sept. 6, 2024, 4:34 a.m. UTC

Add lockdep assertions in get_vmcs12() and get_shadow_vmcs12() to verify
the vCPU's mutex is held, as the returned VMCS objects are dynamically
allocated/freed when nested VMX is turned on/off, i.e. accessing vmcs12
structures without holding vcpu->mutex is susceptible to use-after-free.

Waive the assertion if the VM is being destroyed, as KVM currently forces
a nested VM-Exit when freeing the vCPU.  If/when that wart is fixed, the
assertion can/should be converted to an unqualified lockdep assertion.
