Subject: [PATCH RFC 0/5] x86/KVM/svm: get rid of hardcoded instructions lengths
Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2019 13:02:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190620110240.25799-1-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)

Jim rightfully complains that hardcoding instuctions lengths is not always
correct: additional (redundant) prefixes can be used. Luckily, the ugliness
is mostly harmless: modern AMD CPUs support NRIP_SAVE feature but I'd like
to clean things up and sacrifice speed in favor of correctness.

Early RFC. Unfortunately, I got distracted by some other problems so
sending it out half-baked.

TODO:
- Get rid of hardcoded '+ 3' in vmrun_interception().
- Test.

P.S. If you'd like to test the series you'll have to have a CPU without
NRIP_SAVE feature or forcefully disable it, something like:
