[PATCH v2 0/7] KVM: x86: CPUID emulation and tracing fixes

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

 



Round two of trying to wrangle kvm_cpuid() into submission.  Two more bug
fixes, both related to querying for an "AMD" vendor, in addition to the
fixes in v1 (tracing and Hypervisor/Centaur range checks).

In theory, everything up to the refactoring is non-controversial, i.e. we
can bikeshed the refactoring without delaying the bug fixes.

v2:
  - Use Jan's patch to fix the trace bug. [Everyone]
  - Rework Hypervisor/Centaur handling so that only the Hypervisor
    sub-ranges get the restrictive 0xffffff00 mask, and so that Centaur's
    range only gets recognized when the guest vendor is Centaur. [Jim]
  - Add the aforementioned bug fixes.
  - Add a patch to do build time assertions on the vendor string, which
    are hand coded u32s in the emulator (for direct comparison against
    CPUID register output).
  - Drop the patch to add CPUID.maxphyaddr emulator helper. [Paolo]
  - Redo refactoring patches to land them after all the bug fixes
    and to do the refactoring without any semantic changes in the
    emulator.
