[RESEND v4 4/7] KVM: SVM: Expand AVIC_PHYSICAL_MAX_INDEX_MASK to be a 12-bit field

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

 



In the latest APM describing AVIC support for 4k vCPUs, VMCB
AVIC_PHYSICAL_MAX_INDEX (Offset 0xF8) and EXITINFO2.Index are both
updated from 9-bit wide to 12-bit wide fields unconditionally (i.e.,
regardless of AVIC support for 4k vCPUs). Expand
AVIC_PHYSICAL_MAX_INDEX_MASK accordingly.

While AVIC_PHYSICAL_MAX_INDEX_MASK is updated to a 12-bit field, KVM
will limit the max vCPU/APIC ID based on the maximum supported on a
specific processor and enforce that limit during vCPU creation. I.e.,
we don't need to rely on the mask to ensure that the max APIC ID being
programmed in the VMCB is in range. The additional bits (11:9) were
previously marked reserved and were never set/read by older processors.
