[PATCH v4 14/21] kvm: x86: Disable RDMSR interception of IA32_XFD_ERR

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

 



From: Jing Liu <jing2.liu@xxxxxxxxx>

Disable read emulation of IA32_XFD_ERR MSR if guest cpuid includes XFD.
This saves one unnecessary VM-exit in guest #NM handler, given that the
MSR is already restored with the guest value before the guest is resumed.
