Subject: [PATCH 1/8] x86/msr: Use "raw_" names for calls to native_* functions
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 12:03:32 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260320190332.DF9F7A9B@davehans-spike.ostc.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260320190330.A97C443B@davehans-spike.ostc.intel.com>
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
Currently, the paravirt and native code define a common set of MSR
functions. But, some of the code is duplicated between the two. For
instance, the packing and unpacking of the 64-bit MSR value into two
32-bit values is done in both.
Introduce a new abstraction layer: "raw" calls. For now, define and
use them only in the native case. This lays the foundation of
having the paravirt code also defined "raw" calls.
