Subject: [PATCH for-next] x86/VT-x: Don't rewrite HOST_TR_SELECTOR on every context switch
Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2017 18:16:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1508260561-13248-1-git-send-email-andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> (raw)
TSS_ENTRY is a compile time constant, so HOST_TR_SELECTOR can be set up during
VMCS construction and left alone thereafter, rather than rewriting it on every
context switch.
