From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: KarimAllah Ahmed Subject: [PATCH 1/3] X86/nVMX: Properly set spec_ctrl and pred_cmd before merging MSRs Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2018 23:53:28 +0100 Message-ID: <1518130410-6583-1-git-send-email-karahmed@amazon.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Cc: KarimAllah Ahmed , Paolo Bonzini , =?UTF-8?q?Radim=20Kr=C4=8Dm=C3=A1=C5=99?= To: kvm@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: kvm.vger.kernel.org These two variables should check whether SPEC_CTRL and PRED_CMD are supposed to be passed through to L2 guests or not. While msr_write_intercepted_l01 would return 'true' if it is not passed through. So just invert the result of msr_write_intercepted_l01 to implement the correct semantics.
