Hi,
I wanted to know how kvm handles special previlaged instructions
provided for virtulization support like "skinit" in AMD and "TXT" in
intel.
Are they also virtualized in KVM..??

Is there any work going in this direction?
Pointers to any documentations in this direction will be helpful to me.

Thank you,
Pravin Shinde

Skinit is not virtualized on AMD systems and there is no plan to
implement this currently.
