[PATCH 5/6] KVM: x86: Virtualize FLUSH_L1D and passthrough MSR_IA32_FLUSH_CMD

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

 



Virtualize FLUSH_L1D so that the guest can use the performant L1D flush
if one of the many mitigations might require a flush in the guest, e.g.
Linux provides an option to flush the L1D when switching mms.

Passthrough MSR_IA32_FLUSH_CMD for write when it's supported in hardware
and exposed to the guest, i.e. always let the guest write it directly if
FLUSH_L1D is fully supported.

Forward writes to hardware in host context on the off chance that KVM
ends up emulating a WRMSR, or in the really unlikely scenario where
userspace wants to force a flush.  Restrict these forwarded WRMSRs to
the known command out of an abundance of caution.  Passing through the
MSR means the guest can throw any and all values at hardware, but doing
so in host context is arguably a bit more dangerous.
