[PATCH 3.16 012/131] x86/KVM/VMX: Expose SPEC_CTRL Bit(2) to the guest

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 29 2018 - 18:01:22 EST


3.16.59-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit da39556f66f5cfe8f9c989206974f1cb16ca5d7c upstream.

Expose the CPUID.7.EDX[31] bit to the guest, and also guard against various
combinations of SPEC_CTRL MSR values.

The handling of the MSR (to take into account the host value of SPEC_CTRL
Bit(2)) is taken care of in patch:
