[PATCH 1/4] KVM: x86: Allow vendor code to disable quirks

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

 



In some cases, the handling of quirks is split between platform-specific
code and generic code, or it is done entirely in generic code, but the
relevant bug does not trigger on some platforms; for example,
KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED is only applicable to AMD systems.  In that
case, allow unaffected vendor modules to disable handling of the quirk.

The quirk remains available in KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2, because that API
tells userspace that KVM *knows* that some of its past behavior was bogus
or just undesirable.  In other words, it's plausible for userspace to
refuse to run if a quirk is not listed by KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2.

In kvm_check_has_quirk(), in addition to checking if a quirk is not
explicitly disabled by the user, also verify if the quirk applies to
the hardware.
