Subject: [patch V5 08/14] MDS basics 8
Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2019 16:09:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190227152037.728148331@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20190227150939.605235753@linutronix.de
CPUs which are affected by L1TF and MDS mitigate MDS with the L1D Flush on
VMENTER when updated microcode is installed. CPUs which are not affected by
L1TF but affected by MDS need explicit MDS mitigation.
For these cases, follow the host mitigation state and invoke the MDS
mitigation before VMENTER.
