Perhaps I should have said > the MSR is not XSAVE managed vs 'preserved'? You're stating the MSR is per-*CORE*, and then continue to talk about per-task state.

We're not going to do that again. _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list -- linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org To unsubscribe send an email to linux-nvdimm-leave@lists.01.org
