[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: x86: use native MSR ops for SPEC_CTRL

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

 



Having a paravirt indirect call in the IBRS restore path is not a
good idea, since we are trying to protect from speculative execution
of bogus indirect branch targets.  It is also slower, so use
native_wrmsrl on the vmentry path too.
