[PATCH 02/28] nVMX: Add VMX and SVM to list of supported cpuid features

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

 



If the "nested" module option is enabled, add the "VMX" CPU feature to the
list of CPU features KVM advertises with the KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID ioctl.

Qemu uses this ioctl, and intersects KVM's list with its own list of desired
cpu features (depending on the -cpu option given to qemu) to determine the
final list of features presented to the guest.
