Subject: [PATCH v5 20/20] KVM: x86: selftests: Add APX state handling and XCR0 sanity checks
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 17:19:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720171949.498680-21-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260720171949.498680-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>

Now that KVM exposes the APX feature to guests, extend some existing
selftests to validate XCR0 configuration and state management.

Since APX repurposes the XSAVE area previously used by MPX in the
non-compacted format, add a check to ensure that MPX state is not set
when APX is enabled.

Also, load non-init APX state data in the guest so that XSTATE_BV[APX] is
set, allowing validation of APX state testing.
