Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH 07/12] nSVM: Remove a superfluous modification of guest EFER.NX in NPT NX test
Date: Tue, 22 Jun 2021 14:00:42 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210622210047.3691840-8-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210622210047.3691840-1-seanjc@google.com>
Remove a bizarre modification of the guest's EFER.NX from the NPT NX
test. For reasons unknown, the NPT NX test forces EFER.NX in the guest
_after_ running the test. Now that the v1 infrastructure saves/restores
guest EFER across the test, the motivation, whatever thay may have been,
is moot because the forced EFER.NX value won't persist.
