Subject: [PATCH 16/28] KVM: VMX: Manually recalc all MSR intercepts on userspace MSR filter change
Date: Thu, 29 May 2025 16:40:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250529234013.3826933-17-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250529234013.3826933-1-seanjc@google.com>
On a userspace MSR filter change, recalculate all MSR intercepts using the
filter-agnostic logic instead of maintaining a "shadow copy" of KVM's
desired intercepts. The shadow bitmaps add yet another point of failure,
are confusing (e.g. what does "handled specially" mean!?!?), an eyesore,
and a maintenance burden.
Given that KVM *must* be able to recalculate the correct intercepts at any
given time, and that MSR filter updates are not hot paths, there is zero
benefit to maintaining the shadow bitmaps.
