[RFC PATCH 11/12] x86/sev: Handle CLFLUSH MMIO events

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

 



From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

Handle CLFLUSH instruction to MMIO memory in the #VC handler. The
instruction is ignored by the handler, as the Hypervisor is
responsible for cache management of emulated MMIO memory.
