[PATCH v2] KVM: x86: Complain about an attempt to change the APIC base address

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

 



KVM does not support changing the APIC's base address. Prior to commit
3743c2f02517 ("KVM: x86: inhibit APICv/AVIC on changes to APIC ID or
APIC base"), it emitted a rate-limited warning about this. Now, it's
just silently broken.

Use vcpu_unimpl() to complain about this unsupported operation. Even a
rate-limited error message is better than complete silence.

Fixes: 3743c2f02517 ("KVM: x86: inhibit APICv/AVIC on changes to APIC ID or APIC base")

 Changes in v2:
  * Changed format specifiers from "%#llx" to "%#x"
  * Cast apic->base_address to unsigned int for printing
