Subject: [PATCH v2 11/15] mshv_vtl: Let userspace do VSM configuration
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 12:42:01 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260423124206.2410879-12-namjain@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260423124206.2410879-1-namjain@linux.microsoft.com>
The kernel currently sets the VSM configuration register, thereby
imposing certain VSM configuration on the userspace (OpenVMM).
The userspace (OpenVMM) has the capability to configure this register,
and it is already doing it using the generic hypercall interface.
The configuration can vary based on the use case or architectures, so
let userspace take care of configuring it and remove this logic in the
kernel driver.
