[PATCH v2 0/7] KVM: VMX: PT (processor trace) optimization cleanup and fixes

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

 



Patch 1-3 are optimization and cleanup. 

Patch 4-7 are fixes for PT. Patch 4 and 5 fix the virtulazation of PT to
provide architectual consistent behavior for guest. Patch 6 fix the case
that malicious userspace can exploit PT to cause vm-entry failure or #GP
in KVM. Patch 7 fix the potential MSR access #GP if some PT MSRs not
available on hardware.

Patch 3 and patch 7 are added in v2.

Xiaoyao Li (7):
  KVM: VMX: Restore host's MSR_IA32_RTIT_CTL when it's not zero
  KVM: VMX: Use precomputed vmx->pt_desc.addr_range
  KVM: VMX: Rename pt_desc.addr_range to pt_desc.nr_addr_range
  KVM: VMX: RTIT_CTL_BRANCH_EN has no dependency on other CPUID bit
  KVM: VMX: Disallow PT MSRs accessing if PT is not exposed to guest
  KVM: VMX: Check Intel PT related CPUID leaves
  KVM: VMX: Only context switch some PT MSRs when they exist
