Hi Jim, 2018-03-14 2:21 GMT+08:00 Jim Mattson <jmattson@xxxxxxxxxx>: > Is there a need for a new API for yielding MONITOR/MWAIT to the guest? > Why not just tie this to the guest CPUID.01H:ECX[MWAIT] being set? The API also will be used by HLT/PAUSE. Please refer to Paolo's original proposal though I didn't find a link which is replied by Paolo direclty. https://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=151182818103804&w=2 Regards, Wanpeng Li > > On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 4:53 AM, Wanpeng Li <kernellwp@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx> >> >> Allowing a guest to execute MWAIT without interception enables a guest >> to put a (physical) CPU into a power saving state, where it takes >> longer to return from than what may be desired by the host. >> >> Don't give a guest that power over a host by default.
