[RFC PATCH v6 85/92] kvm: x86: emulate lfence

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

 



From: Mihai Donțu <mdontu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This adds support for all encoding variants of lfence (0x0f 0xae 0xe[8-f]).

I did not use rmb() in case it will be made to use a different instruction
on future architectures.
