Subject: [PATCH v3 2/6] KVM: x86: Allow vendor code to disable quirks
Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2025 01:06:43 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250304060647.2903469-3-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250304060647.2903469-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
In some cases, the handling of quirks is split between platform-specific
code and generic code, or it is done entirely in generic code, but the
relevant bug does not trigger on some platforms; for example,
this will be the case for "ignore guest PAT". Allow unaffected vendor
modules to disable handling of a quirk for all VMs via a new entry in
kvm_caps.
Such quirks remain available in KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2, because that API
tells userspace that KVM *knows* that some of its past behavior was bogus
or just undesirable. In other words, it's plausible for userspace to
refuse to run if a quirk is not listed by KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2, so
preserve that and make it part of the API.
As an example, mark KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED as auto-disabled on
Intel systems.
