Subject: [PATCH v6: 1/4] x86/msr: Add R3MWAIT register and bit to msr-info.h
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2016 16:02:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1477576923-3244-2-git-send-email-grzegorz.andrejczuk@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1477576923-3244-1-git-send-email-grzegorz.andrejczuk@intel.com>

Intel Xeon Phi x200 (codenamed Knights Landing) has MSR
MISC_THD_FEATURE_ENABLE 0x140.

Setting 2nd bit of this register makes MONITOR and MWAIT instructions
do not cause invalid-opcode exception when called from ring different
than 0.

Hex   Dec  Name                    Scope
140H  320  MISC_THD_FEATURE_ENABLE Thread
           0    Reserved
           1    if set to 1, the MONITOR and MWAIT instructions do not
                cause invalid-opcode exceptions when executed with CPL > 0
                or in virtual-8086 mode. If MWAIT is executed when CPL > 0
                or in virtual-8086 mode, and if EAX indicates a C-state
                other than C0 or C1, the instruction operates as if EAX
                indicated the C-state C1.
