[PATCH 5/6] KVM: SVM: Selective cr0 intercept

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

 



If two conditions apply:
 - no bits outside TS and EM differ between the host and guest cr0
 - the fpu is active

then we can activate the selective cr0 write intercept and drop the
unconditional cr0 read and write intercept, and allow the guest to run
with the host fpu state.  This reduces cr0 exits due to guest fpu management
while the guest fpu is loaded.
