[PATCH v3 2/7] x86: KVM: Advertise CMPccXADD CPUID to user space

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

 



CMPccXADD is a new set of instructions in the latest Intel platform
Sierra Forest. This new instruction set includes a semaphore operation
that can compare and add the operands if condition is met, which can
improve database performance.

The bit definition:
CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=1):EAX[bit 7]

This CPUID is exposed to userspace. Besides, there is no other VMX
control for this instruction.
