The kvm_check_features_against_host() change would be a user-visible behavior change, and I wanted to keep the changes minimal by now. (the main reason I submitted this earlier is to make it easier to clean up the init code for CPU subclasses) I was planning to introduce those behavior changes only after introducing the feature-word array, so the kvm_check_features_against_host() code can become simpler and easier to review (instead of adding 4 additional items to the messy struct model_features_t array). But if you think we can introduce those changes now, I will be happy to send a series that changes that code as well. > > > > > Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@xxxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > target-i386/cpu.c | 2 ++ > > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/target-i386/cpu.c b/target-i386/cpu.c > > index 6e2d32d..76f19f0 100644 > > --- a/target-i386/cpu.c > > +++ b/target-i386/cpu.c > > @@ -900,6 +900,8 @@ static void kvm_cpu_fill_host(x86_def_t *x86_cpu_def) > > /* Other KVM-specific feature fields: */ > > x86_cpu_def->svm_features = > > kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid(s, 0x8000000A, 0, R_EDX); > > + x86_cpu_def->kvm_features = > > + kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid(s, KVM_CPUID_FEATURES, 0, > > R_EAX); > > #endif /* CONFIG_KVM */ > > } > -- Eduardo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
