When L1 don't use TPR-Shadow to run L2, L0 configures vmcs02 without TPR-Shadow and install intercepts on CR8 access (load and store). If L1 do not intercept L2 CR8 access, L0 intercepts on those accesses will emulate load/store on L1's LAPIC TPR. If in this case L2 lowers TPR such that there is now an injectable interrupt to L1, apic_update_ppr() will request a KVM_REQ_EVENT which will trigger a call to update_cr8_intercept() to update TPR-Threshold to highest pending IRR priority. However, this update to TPR-Threshold is done while active vmcs is vmcs02 instead of vmcs01. Thus, when later at some point L0 will emulate an exit from L2 to L1, L1 will still run with high TPR-Threshold. This will result in every VMEntry to L1 to immediately exit on TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD and continue to do so infinitely until some condition will cause KVM_REQ_EVENT to be set. (Note that TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD exit handler do not set KVM_REQ_EVENT until apic_update_ppr() will notice a new injectable interrupt for PPR) To fix this issue, change update_cr8_intercept() such that if L2 lowers L1's TPR in a way that requires to lower L1's TPR-Threshold, save update to TPR-Threshold and apply it to vmcs01 when L0 emulates an exit from L2 to L1.

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.
