Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: nVMX: Improve HLT activity support
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2019 00:46:48 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190819214650.41991-1-nikita.leshchenko@oracle.com> (raw)

These patches improve various aspects of nested HLT activity state support. The
first patch prevents usermode from turning off the feature bit in VMX_MISC MSR
and the second patch adds additional activity state related checks on VMCS12 as
required by SDM.

These patches were tested to not cause regressions in kvm-unit-tests.

Nikita
