Subject: [PATCH 4/4] mshv: Add SMT_ENABLED_GUEST partition creation flag
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2026 14:48:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260218144802.1962513-4-anbelski@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260218144802.1962513-1-anbelski@linux.microsoft.com>

Add support for HV_PARTITION_CREATION_FLAG_SMT_ENABLED_GUEST
to allow userspace VMMs to enable SMT for guest partitions.

Expose this via new MSHV_PT_BIT_SMT_ENABLED_GUEST flag in the UAPI.

Withouth this flag, the hypervisor schedules guest VPs incorrectly,
causing SMT unusable.
