Subject: [GIT PULL] x86/tdx for 6.13-rc1
Date: Tue, 19 Nov 2024 17:32:43 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241120013243.831531-1-dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> (raw)

Hi Linus,

Please pull some x86/tdx changes for 6.13-rc1. These essentially
refine some interactions between TDX guests and VMMs.

The first leverages a new TDX module feature to runtime disable the
ability for a VM to inject #VE exceptions. Before this feature, there
was only a static on/off switch and the guest had to panic if it was
configured in a bad state.

The second lets the guest opt in to be able to access the topology
CPUID leaves. Before this, accesses to those leaves would #VE.

For both of these, it would have been nicest to just change the
default behavior, but some pesky "other" OSes evidently need to retain
the legacy behavior.
