[PATCH v2 4/5] KVM: VMX: Add facility to atomically switch MSRs on guest entry/exit

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

 



Some guest msr values cannot be used on the host (for example. EFER.NX=0),
so we need to switch them atomically during guest entry or exit.

Add a facility to program the vmx msr autoload registers accordingly.
