Then, kmod falls in infinite loop in handle EPT_MISCONFIG.
As far as i know, when kvm enters guest after handling EPT_MISCONFIG, seabios 
should return
from mmio write and wait for virtio backend(qemu) to handle this mmio writing.
What puzzles me:
1) i can not understand why kvm runs in infinite loop and seabios does not 
return from writew.

From the trace in L1 guest, it did not hang in KVM, as it went into guest mode 
normally.

2) kvm nested kvm is ok. But vmware nested kvm is not ok. This problem has 
anything related
     with vmware?


It is the issue in vmware, i guess the RIP register is not handled correctly.
BTW, does kvm unit tests run well on nested vmware?
