Subject[PATCH v4 0/6] KVM: x86: Hyper-V invariant TSC control feature
Date
Changes since v3:
- Use cpuid_entry_override() for the newly introduces CPUID_8000_0007_EDX
leaf in __do_cpuid_func(). [Sean]
- Add comments and reshuffle check in kvm_hv_invtsc_suppressed() [Sean]

Original description:

Normally, genuine Hyper-V doesn't expose architectural invariant TSC
(CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8]) to its guests by default. A special PV MSR
(HV_X64_MSR_TSC_INVARIANT_CONTROL, 0x40000118) and corresponding CPUID
feature bit (CPUID.0x40000003.EAX[15]) were introduced. When bit 0 of the
PV MSR is set, invariant TSC bit starts to show up in CPUID. When the
feature is exposed to Hyper-V guests, reenlightenment becomes unneeded.

Note: strictly speaking, KVM doesn't have to have the feature as exposing
raw invariant TSC bit (CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8]) also seems to work for
modern Windows versions. The feature is, however, tiny and straitforward
and gives additional flexibility so why not.

x86/hyperv: Add HV_INVARIANT_TSC_EXPOSED define
KVM: x86: Introduce CPUID_8000_0007_EDX 'scattered' leaf
KVM: x86: Hyper-V invariant TSC control
KVM: selftests: Rename 'msr->availble' to 'msr->fault_exepected' in
hyperv_features test
KVM: selftests: Convert hyperv_features test to using
KVM_X86_CPU_FEATURE()
KVM: selftests: Test Hyper-V invariant TSC control
