[PATCH 6/7] x86/svm: Set IBPB when running a different VCPU
From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Mon Jan 08 2018 - 13:09:57 EST
From: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@xxxxxxx>
Set IBPB (Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier) when the current CPU is
going to run a VCPU different from what was previously run. Nested
virtualization uses the same VMCB for the second level guest, but the
L1 hypervisor should be using IBRS to protect itself.
