Currently when SVM is enabled in guest CPUID, AVIC is inhibited as soon as the guest CPUID is set. AVIC happens to be fully disabled on all vCPUs by the time any guest entry starts (if after migration the entry can be nested). The reason is that currently we disable avic right away on vCPU from which the kvm_request_apicv_update was called and for this case, it happens to be called on all vCPUs (by svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid). After we stop doing this, AVIC will end up being disabled only when KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE is processed which is after we done switching to the nested guest. Fix this by just using vmcb01 in svm_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl for avic (which is a right thing to do anyway).

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.
