[PATCH 2/2] KVM: x86: Expose CLZERO and XSAVEERPTR to the guest

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

 



I was surprised to see that the guest reported `fxsave_leak' while the
host did not. After digging deeper I noticed that the bits are simply
masked out during enumeration.
The XSAVEERPTR feature is actually a bug fix on AMD which means the
kernel can disable a workaround.
While here, I've seen that CLZERO is also masked out. This opcode is
unprivilged so exposing it to the guest should not make any difference.

Pass CLZERO and XSAVEERPTR to the guest if available on the host.
