The bogus case can never happen, i.e., when sld_state == sld_off, guest won't trigger split lock #AC and of course no handle_guest_split_lock() will be called. Beside, drop bogus case also makes future patch easier to remove sld_state if we reach the alignment that it must be sld_warn or sld_fatal when handle_guest_split_lock() is called. Signed-off-by: Xiaoyao Li <xiaoyao.li@xxxxxxxxx> --- The alternative would be to remove the "SLD enabled" check from KVM so that a truly unexpected/bogus #AC would generate a warn. It's not clear whether or not calling handle_guest_split_lock() iff SLD is enabled was intended in the long term. --- arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c index 0e6aee6ef1e8..4602dac14dcb 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c @@ -1088,9 +1088,8 @@ bool handle_guest_split_lock(unsigned long ip) return true; } - pr_warn_once("#AC: %s/%d %s split_lock trap at address: 0x%lx\n", - current->comm, current->pid, - sld_state == sld_fatal ?
