[PATCH v3 1/2] KVM: x86: Add a framework for supporting MSR-based features
From: Tom Lendacky
Date: Wed Feb 21 2018 - 14:40:04 EST
Provide a new KVM capability that allows bits within MSRs to be recognized
as features. Two new ioctls are added to the VM ioctl routine to retrieve
the list of these MSRs and then retrieve their values. An x86_kvm_ops
callback is used to determine support for the listed MSR-based features.
