Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] KVM: VMX: Add host MSR read/write helpers to consolidate preemption handling
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2025 10:16:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250626171601.2293914-1-xin@zytor.com> (raw)
From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
Add host MSR read/write helpers to consolidate preemption handling to
prepare for adding FRED RSP0 access functions without duplicating the
preemption handling code.
