[PATCH 2/2] KVM: VMX: Fix VPID capability detection

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxx>

According to the Intel SDM, volume 3, section 28.3.2: Creating and
Using Cached Translation Information, "The following items describe the 
creation of mappings while EPT is not in use":
 - Linear mappings may be created. They are derived from the paging 
   structures referenced (directly or indirectly) by the current value 
   of CR3 and are associated with the current VPID and the current PCID.

The VPID is used to tag linear mappings when EPT is not enabled. However,
current logic just detects VPID capability if EPT is enabled, this patch 
fixes it.
