[PATCH v3 0/4] KVM: x86: Partially allow KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} after KVM_RUN for CPU hotplug

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

 



Changes since v2:
- Tighten the check for CPUID data equality, require CPUID entries for the
update to be supplied in the exact same order as the original data [Paolo]

Recently, KVM made it illegal to change CPUID after KVM_RUN but
unfortunately this change is not fully compatible with existing VMMs.
In particular, QEMU reuses vCPU fds for CPU hotplug after unplug and it
calls KVM_SET_CPUID2. Relax the requirement by implementing an allowing
KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} with the exact same data.

Vitaly Kuznetsov (4):
  KVM: x86: Do runtime CPUID update before updating
    vcpu->arch.cpuid_entries
  KVM: x86: Partially allow KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} after KVM_RUN
  KVM: selftests: Rename 'get_cpuid_test' to 'cpuid_test'
  KVM: selftests: Test KVM_SET_CPUID2 after KVM_RUN
