Re: [PATCH v2] KVM: X86: #GP when guest attempts to write MCi_STATUS register w/o 0

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

 



"(offset & 0x3) == 1" seems like an obfuscated way of writing the
predicate, is_mci_status_msr(msr). But other than that, this change
looks fine to me.

I'm a little more concerned about the code above. At the very least,
it needs to let the host set an arbitrary value for save/restore to
work.
