Date: Mon, 13 Jan 2014 16:28:30 -0800 Message-Id: <20140114002754.453300466@linuxfoundation.org> In-Reply-To: <20140114002752.497010554@linuxfoundation.org> References: <20140114002752.497010554@linuxfoundation.org> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dirk Brandewie commit 6cbd7ee10e2842a3d1f9b60abede1c8f3d1f1130 upstream. KVM environments do not support APERF/MPERF MSRs. intel_pstate cannot operate without these registers. The previous validity checks in intel_pstate_msrs_not_valid() are insufficent in nested KVMs. References: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1046317 Signed-off-by: Dirk Brandewie Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
