[PATCH v2 12/28] KVM: VMX: Enable VM_{EXIT,ENTRY}_LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL for KVM on Hyper-V

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

 



The updated Enlightened VMCS v1 specification gained
{guest,host}_ia32_perf_global_ctrl fields so there's no need to filter
VM_{EXIT,ENTRY}_LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL out. Unfortunately, enabling
these controls for Hyper-V on KVM results in boot time crashes and the
exact reason is not clear yet. It is, however, possible to enable the
feature for KVM on Hyper-V as it seems to work.
