Subject: [ 17/37] KVM: VMX: Advertise CPU_BASED_RDPMC_EXITING for nested guests
Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2012 04:03:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120817030246.408699559@decadent.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120817030243.807605523@decadent.org.uk>
3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stefan Bader <stefan.bader@canonical.com>
Based on commit fee84b079d5ddee2247b5c1f53162c330c622902 upstream.
Intercept RDPMC and forward it to the PMU emulation code.
Newer vmx support will only allow to load the kvm_intel module
if RDPMC_EXITING is supported. Even without the actual support
this part of the change is required on 3.2 hosts.
