[PATCH v3 00/11] x86: xen cpuid() cleanup
From: Juergen Gross
Date: Tue Apr 18 2017 - 02:31:57 EST
Reduce special casing of xen_cpuid() by using cpu capabilities instead
of faked cpuid nodes.
This cleanup enables us remove the hypervisor specific set_cpu_features
callback as the same effect can be reached via
setup_[clear|force]_cpu_cap().
Removing the rest faked nodes from xen_cpuid() requires some more work
as the remaining cases (mwait leafs and extended topology info) have
to be handled at the consumer sides of this information.
Changes in V3:
- rewrite patch 9 (xsave) to use xgetbv instruction to test for osxsave
availability (Andrew Cooper)
Changes in V2:
- added several features to this scheme
- removed hypervisor specific set_cpu_features() callbacks
