[PATCH 36/43] KVM: VMX: Remove obsolete MSR bitmap refresh at vCPU RESET/INIT

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

 



Remove an unnecessary MSR bitmap refresh during vCPU RESET/INIT.  In both
cases, the MSR bitmap already has the desired values and state.

At RESET, the vCPU is guaranteed to be running with x2APIC disabled, the
x2APIC MSRs are guaranteed to be intercepted due to the MSR bitmap being
initialized to all ones by alloc_loaded_vmcs(), and vmx->msr_bitmap_mode
is guaranteed to be zero, i.e. reflecting x2APIC disabled.

At INIT, the APIC_BASE MSR is not modified, thus there can't be any
change in x2APIC state.
