Subject: [PATCH v9 01/22] KVM: VMX: Enable support for secondary VM exit controls
Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2025 13:18:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251026201911.505204-2-xin@zytor.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251026201911.505204-1-xin@zytor.com>

From: Xin Li <xin3.li@intel.com>

Introduce infrastructure to support secondary VM exit controls.

Always load the controls when supported by hardware, though all control
bits remain clear in this patch.

Change in v5:
* Add TB from Xuelian Guo.

Changes in v4:
* Fix clearing VM_EXIT_ACTIVATE_SECONDARY_CONTROLS (Chao Gao).
* Check VM exit/entry consistency based on the new macro from Sean
  Christopherson.

Change in v3:
* Do FRED controls consistency checks in the VM exit/entry consistency
  check framework (Sean Christopherson).

Change in v2:
* Always load the secondary VM exit controls (Sean Christopherson).
