[PATCH v2 0/3] MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES cleanups

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

 



Do some cleanups about MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES in KVM e.g, fix stale
comments, elimite open-coded MSR reads, track features that can be exposed to
guests to avoid computing them runtime. They are found when reading the code.

No functional change intented.

Changes from v1 -> v2:
1. toggle ARCH_CAP_SKIP_VMENTRY_L1DFLUSH bit when l1tf mitigation state is
   changed by module param. [Xiaoyao, Sean]
2. add more cleanups (patch 2/3)


Chao Gao (3):
  KVM: x86: Track supported ARCH_CAPABILITIES in kvm_caps
  KVM: x86: Correct the name for skipping VMENTER l1d flush
  x86/cpu, KVM: Use helper function to read MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES
