[PATCH 4/4] KVM: x86: Simplify logic to handle lack of host NX support

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

 



Use boot_cpu_has() to check for NX support now that KVM requires
host_efer.NX=1 if NX is supported.  Opportunistically avoid the guest
CPUID lookup in cpuid_fix_nx_cap() if NX is supported, which is by far
the common case.
