Sean Christopherson 75ee23b30d KVM: x86: Don't update RIP or do single-step on faulting emulation
Don't advance RIP or inject a single-step #DB if emulation signals a
fault.  This logic applies to all state updates that are conditional on
clean retirement of the emulation instruction, e.g. updating RFLAGS was
previously handled by commit 38827dbd3f ("KVM: x86: Do not update
EFLAGS on faulting emulation").

Not advancing RIP is likely a nop, i.e. ctxt->eip isn't updated with
ctxt->_eip until emulation "retires" anyways.  Skipping #DB injection
fixes a bug reported by Andy Lutomirski where a #UD on SYSCALL due to
invalid state with EFLAGS.TF=1 would loop indefinitely due to emulation
overwriting the #UD with #DB and thus restarting the bad SYSCALL over
and over.

README

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.
