[PATCH 0/2] KVM: VMX: x2APIC + APICV MSR fix and cleanup

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

 



Patch 1 is an unofficial patch from Peter to fix x2APIC MSR interception
on non-APICV systems.  As Peter suggested, it really should be squashed
with commit 3eb900173c71 ("KVM: x86: VMX: Prevent MSR passthrough when MSR
access is denied").  Without the fix, KVM is completely busted on
non-APICV systems.

Patch 2 is a cleanup of sorts to revert back to the pre-filtering approach
of initializing the x2APIC MSR bitmaps for APICV.

Note, I haven't tested on an APICV system.  My APICV system appears to
have crashed over the weekend and I haven't yet journeyed back to the
lab to kick it.
