Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] KVM: VMX: always require WB memory type for EPT
Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2017 15:35:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170810133512.13442-3-david@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170810133512.13442-1-david@redhat.com>
We already always set that type but don't check if it is supported. Also
for nVMX, we only support WB for now. Let's just require it.
