[PATCH v3 0/4] KVM: x86: MSR_TSC_AUX fixes and improvements

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

 



Fix potential cross-vendor landmines due to Intel and AMD having different
behavior for MSR_TSC_AUX[63:32], unify the logic across SVM and VMX, and
switch MSR_TSC_AUX via user return MSRs on SVM (the original goal).

v3:
  - Fix a comment typo. [Reiji]
  - Add patches to add missing guest_cpuid_has() check, drop bits 63:32 on
    AMD, and unify VMX and SVM emulation.
  - Rebase to kvm/next, commit c4f71901d53b ("Merge tag 'kvmarm-5.13' ... )

v2:
  - Rebase to kvm/queue (ish), commit 0e91d1992235 ("KVM: SVM: Allocate SEV
    command structures on local stack")
  - https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210422001736.3255735-1-seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx

  KVM: SVM: Inject #GP on guest MSR_TSC_AUX accesses if RDTSCP
    unsupported
  KVM: SVM: Clear MSR_TSC_AUX[63:32] on write
  KVM: x86: Tie Intel and AMD behavior for MSR_TSC_AUX to guest CPU
    model
  KVM: SVM: Delay restoration of host MSR_TSC_AUX until return to
    userspace
