Subject: [PATCH 4.9 85/92] KVM/SVM: Allow direct access to MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL
Date: Fri,  9 Feb 2018 14:39:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180209133937.264485880@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180209133931.211869118@linuxfoundation.org>

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: KarimAllah Ahmed <karahmed@amazon.de>


(cherry picked from commit b2ac58f90540e39324e7a29a7ad471407ae0bf48)

[ Based on a patch from Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> ]

... basically doing exactly what we do for VMX:

- Passthrough SPEC_CTRL to guests (if enabled in guest CPUID)
- Save and restore SPEC_CTRL around VMExit and VMEntry only if the guest
  actually used it.
