Subject: [GIT PULL] KVM leftovers for 4.8-rc1
Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2016 18:03:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160725160316.GA30454@potion> (raw)
Linus,
this pull request is a combination of two pull requests for 4.7-rc8 that
were not merged due to looking hairy. I have changed the tag message to
focus on circumstances of contained reverts as they were likely the
reason behind rejection.
First batch of 4.8-rc1 patches from kvm/next is coming later this week.
The following changes since commit a99cde438de0c4c0cecc1d1af1a55a75b10bfdef:
Linux 4.7-rc6 (2016-07-03 23:01:00 -0700)
are available in the git repository at:

arm64: KVM: VHE: Context switch MDSCR_EL1 (2016-07-23 18:07:12 +0200)
----------------------------------------------------------------
This merge introduces three patches that are later reverted,
- Switching of MSR_TSC_AUX in SVM was thought to cause a host
misbehavior, but it was later cleared of those doubts and the patch
moved code to a hot path, so we reverted it. That patch also needed
a fix for 32 bit builds and both were reverted in one go.
- Al Viro noticed that a fix for a leak in an error path was not valid
with the given API and provided a better fix, so the original patch
was reverted.
Then there are two VMX fixes that move code around because VMCS was not
accessed between vcpu_load() and vcpu_put(), a simple ARM VHE fix, and
two one-liners for PML and MTRR.
