Subject: [PATCH 01/10] KVM: x86: nSVM: Add g_pat to fields copied by svm_copy_vmrun_state()
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 16:29:56 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260113003016.3511895-2-jmattson@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260113003016.3511895-1-jmattson@google.com>
The vmcb01 g_pat field holds the value of L1's IA32_PAT MSR. To
preserve this value through virtual SMM and serialization, add g_pat
to the fields copied by svm_copy_vmrun_state().
