Se trata el bit NX como v\u00e1lido al usar NPT, ya que KVM lo activar\u00e1 cuando la mitigaci\u00f3n de p\u00e1ginas enormes de NX est\u00e9 habilitada (\u00a1incre\u00edble!) y activar\u00e1 la advertencia que se activa al activarse los bits SPTE reservados. KVM ha requerido compatibilidad con NX para SVM desde el commit b26a71a1a5b9 (\"KVM: SVM: Rechazar la carga de kvm_amd si la compatibilidad con NX no est\u00e1 disponible\") precisamente por esta raz\u00f3n, pero aparentemente a nadie se le ocurri\u00f3 probar NPT con la mitigaci\u00f3n habilitada. ------------[ cortar aqu\u00ed ]------------ spte = 0x800000018a600ee7, nivel = 2, bits rsvd = 0x800f0000001fe000 ADVERTENCIA: CPU: 152 PID: 15966 en arch/x86/kvm/mmu/spte.c:215 make_spte+0x327/0x340 [kvm] Nombre del hardware: Google, Inc.
