Subject: KVM/VMX: Allow direct access to MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL From: KarimAllah Ahmed karahmed@amazon.de Date: Thu Feb 1 22:59:45 2018 +0100
From: KarimAllah Ahmed karahmed@amazon.de
commit d28b387fb74da95d69d2615732f50cceb38e9a4d
[ Based on a patch from Ashok Raj ashok.raj@intel.com ]
Add direct access to MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL for guests. This is needed for guests that will only mitigate Spectre V2 through IBRS+IBPB and will not be using a retpoline+IBPB based approach.
To avoid the overhead of saving and restoring the MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL for guests that do not actually use the MSR, only start saving and restoring when a non-zero is written to it.
No attempt is made to handle STIBP here, intentionally. Filtering STIBP may be added in a future patch, which may require trapping all writes if we don't want to pass it through directly to the guest.
[dwmw2: Clean up CPUID bits, save/restore manually, handle reset]
