Hi all,
I'm trying to see if I can run PV guest in a very lightweight HVM
container. I've done some basic prototype to intercept PV guest creation
and try to start it in vmx container. But the vmlaunch fails with the
generic code, exit reason 0x80000021, guest state invalid. I've been trying
to debug it for many days now and to no avail.
It's unfortunate that there's no flow diagram or more specific error codes
to point to the field in problem in case vmlaunch fails.
I'm trying to enter vmx in IA32-e mode. I've got PG/PE/PAE all set to 1.
Ive the CS.L set to 1. I'm not loading EFER MSR as according to the
Intel Manual, Vol 3, section 23.3.2, the LME/LMA are automatically set
if entering in the IA32-e mode. Is this correct?
I experimented with setting GDTR or leaving base to NULL, didn't help. If
I'm loading the CS fields, do I still need to set the GDTR? How about TR,
IDTR and LDTR, do they need to be set for entry? I've been playing
around setting/unsetting them, but keep getting the stupid invalid
guest state error no matter what. Oh yes, I'm on westmere.
Will appreciate any help.
thanks a lot,
Mukesh
