[PATCH 0/4] kvm: cpuid: fix cpuid nent field

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

 



This series aims to clarify the behavior of 
KVM_GET_EMULATED_CPUID and KVM_GET_SUPPORTED
ioctls, and fix a corner case where the nent field of the
struct kvm_cpuid2 is matching the amount of entries that kvm returns.

Patch 1 proposes the nent field fix to cpuid.c,
patch 2 updates the ioctl documentation accordingly and 
patches 3 and 4 provide a selftest to check KVM_GET_EMULATED_CPUID
accordingly.

v2:
- better fix in cpuid.c, perform the nent check after the switch statement 
- fix bug in get_emulated_cpuid.c selftest, each entry needs to have at least
  the padding zeroed otherwise it fails.
