[PATCH 06/26] KVM: x86: Move MSR_IA32_BNDCFGS existence checks into vendor code

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

 



Move the MSR_IA32_BNDCFGS existence check into vendor code by way of
->has_virtualized_msr().  AMD does not support MPX, and given that Intel
is in the process of removing MPX, it's extremely unlikely AMD will ever
support MPX.

Note, invoking ->has_virtualized_msr() requires an extra retpoline, but
kvm_init_msr_list() is not a hot path.  As alluded to above, the
motivation is to quarantine MPX as much as possible.

No functional change intended.
