Subject: [PATCH v2] KVM: x86: Prevent exposing TSC deadline timer feature in the absence of in-kernel APIC
Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2011 11:25:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EF1B423.8050707@siemens.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4EF1B081.3010109@siemens.com>

We must not report the TSC deadline timer feature on our own when user
space provides the APIC as we have no clue about its features.

Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>

Changes in v2:
 - reorganized code to make the flow clearer
