From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Avi Kivity Subject: [PATCH 37/42] KVM: x86: include pvclock MSRs in msrs_to_save Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2009 14:19:38 +0200 Message-ID: <1258373983-8693-38-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> References: <1258373983-8693-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> Cc: kvm@vger.kernel.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Return-path: Received: from mx1.redhat.com ([209.132.183.28]:55071 "EHLO mx1.redhat.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1752986AbZKPMTn (ORCPT ); Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:19:43 -0500 In-Reply-To: <1258373983-8693-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> Sender: kvm-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: From: Glauber Costa For a while now, we are issuing a rdmsr instruction to find out which msrs in our save list are really supported by the underlying machine. However, it fails to account for kvm-specific msrs, such as the pvclock ones. This patch moves then to the beginning of the list, and skip testing them.
