[PATCH v7 04/26] x86/fpu/xstate: Introduce XFEATURE_MASK_KERNEL_DYNAMIC xfeature set
From: Yang Weijiang
Date: Fri Nov 24 2023 - 02:59:37 EST
Define new XFEATURE_MASK_KERNEL_DYNAMIC set including the features can be
optionally enabled by kernel components, i.e., the features are required by
specific kernel components. Currently it's used by KVM to configure guest
dedicated fpstate for calculating the xfeature and fpstate storage size etc.
The kernel dynamic xfeatures now only contain XFEATURE_CET_KERNEL, which is
supported by host as they're enabled in xsaves/xrstors operating xfeature set
(XCR0 | XSS), but the relevant CPU feature, i.e., supervisor shadow stack, is
not enabled in host kernel so it can be omitted for normal fpstate by default.
Remove the kernel dynamic feature from fpu_kernel_cfg.default_features so that
the bits in xstate_bv and xcomp_bv are cleared and xsaves/xrstors can be
optimized by HW for normal fpstate.
