[PATCH v1 0/1] Synic default SCONTROL MSR needs to be enabled

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

 



Based on an analysis of the HyperV firmwares (Gen1 and Gen2) it seems
like the SCONTROL is not being set to the ENABLED state as like we have
thought.

Also from a test done by Vitaly Kuznetsov, running a nested HyperV it
was concluded that the first access to the SCONTROL MSR with a read
resulted with the value of 0x1, aka HV_SYNIC_CONTROL_ENABLE.

It's important to note that this diverges from the value states in the
HyperV TLFS of 0.
