[RFC PATCH 15/18] KVM: x86/mmu: Extend make_spte to understand MBEC

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Extend make_spte to mask in and out bits depending on MBEC enablement.

Note: For the RFC/v1 series, I've added several 'For Review' items that
may require a bit deeper inspection, as well as some long winded
comments/annotations. These will be cleaned up for the next iteration
of the series after initial review.
