[PATCH 0/1] Fix guest kernel crash when hitting AMD errata

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

 



From: Jes Sorensen <Jes.Sorensen@xxxxxxxxxx>

This fix gets around the case where a user specifies a CPU model
triggering an old Opteron errata. The patch returns the clock timing
the errata expects to see and ignores writes to make sure a guest
doesn't get an exception from reading or writing an MSR that is not
supported, since the kernel doesn't use safe MSR access for this
errata workaround.
