Subject: [PATCH v10 09/28] KVM: VMX: Save/restore guest FRED RSP0
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 14:36:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911213659.2025974-10-sohil.mehta@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911213659.2025974-1-sohil.mehta@intel.com>
From: "Xin Li (Intel)" <xin@zytor.com>
Save guest FRED RSP0 in vmx_prepare_switch_to_host() and restore it
in vmx_prepare_switch_to_guest() because MSR_IA32_FRED_RSP0 is passed
through to the guest, thus is volatile/unknown.
Note, host FRED RSP0 is restored in arch_exit_to_user_mode_prepare(),
regardless of whether it is modified in KVM.

v10:
- No change
Note, an equivalent TDX side implementation is missing. No TDX module
with FRED support exists yet so this would be an issue for future
platforms. A generic discussion regarding this is ongoing at:
