[PATCH 2/8] x86/msr: add definitions for indirect branch predictor MSRs

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

 



These MSRs are available if the CPU features SPEC_CTRL
(CPUID(EAX=7,ECX=0).EDX[26]) is present.  The PRED_CMD MSR
is also available if the CPU feature IBPB_SUPPORT
(CPUID(EAX=0x80000008).EBX[12]) is present.

KVM will soon start using PRED_CMD and will make SPEC_CTRL
available to guests.
