[GIT PULL] KVM: x86: Fixes and cleanups for 6.2

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

 



Please pull misc x86 fixes and cleanups that have been floating around for a
while.  These haven't been plugged into any bot-visible branch; I forgot about
most of them until doing a bit of fall/winter cleaning.  That said, the only
one that is substantially complex is Anton's TSC snapshot fix, and that's been
on the lists for many months.

Jim's IBPB fix is arguably fodder for 6.1, but the bug has been around for
2+ years so squeezing it in this late in the cycle doesn't seem necessary.

Holler if any of these give you pause!

Thanks!

  KVM: x86: Use current rather than snapshotted TSC frequency if it is constant (2022-11-30 16:31:27 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Misc KVM x86 fixes and cleanups for 6.2:

 - One-off fixes for various emulation flows (SGX, VMXON, NRIPS=0).

 - Reinstate IBPB on emulated VM-Exit that was incorrectly dropped a few
   years back when eliminating unnecessary barriers when switching between
   vmcs01 and vmcs02.

 - Clean up the MSR filter docs.

 - Clean up vmread_error_trampoline() to make it more obvious that params
   must be passed on the stack, even for x86-64.

 - Let userspace set all supported bits in MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL irrespective
   of the current guest CPUID.

 - Fudge around a race with TSC refinement that results in KVM incorrectly
   thinking a guest needs TSC scaling when running on a CPU with a
   constant TSC, but no hardware-enumerated TSC frequency.
