[PATCH v5 8/8] KVM: x86: Advertise PREFETCHIT0/1 CPUID to user space
From: Jiaxi Chen
Date: Fri Nov 25 2022 - 08:00:04 EST
Latest Intel platform Granite Rapids has introduced a new instruction -
PREFETCHIT0/1, which moves code to memory (cache) closer to the
processor depending on specific hints.
The bit definition:
CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=1):EDX[bit 14]
PREFETCHIT0/1 is on a KVM-only subleaf. Plus an x86_FEATURE definition
for this feature bit to direct it to the KVM entry.
Advertise PREFETCHIT0/1 to KVM userspace. This is safe because there are
no new VMX controls or additional host enabling required for guests to
use this feature.
