[PATCH 3/5] KVM: x86: Apply TSX_CTRL_CPUID_CLEAR if and only if the vCPU has RTM or HLE
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Tue Dec 10 2024 - 20:33:53 EST
When emulating CPUID, retrieve MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL.TSX_CTRL_CPUID_CLEAR if
and only if RTM and/or HLE feature bits need to be cleared. Getting the
MSR value is unnecessary if neither bit is set, and avoiding the lookup
saves ~80 cycles for vCPUs without RTM or HLE.
