[PATCH 4.14 142/267] KVM: x86: fix presentation of TSX feature in ARCH_CAPABILITIES

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

 



From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cbbaa2727aa3ae9e0a844803da7cef7fd3b94f2b upstream.

KVM does not implement MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL, so it must not be presented
to the guests.  It is also confusing to have !ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL_MSR &&
!RTM && ARCH_CAP_TAA_NO: lack of MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL suggests TSX was not
hidden (it actually was), yet the value says that TSX is not vulnerable
to microarchitectural data sampling.  Fix both.
