Subject: [PATCH v2 15/16] KVM: x86: Expose APX sub-features to guests
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 23:54:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260112235408.168200-16-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260112235408.168200-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
Add CPUID leaf 0x29 sub-leaf 0 to enumerate APX sub-features to guests.
This leaf currently defines the following sub-features:
* New Conditional Instructions (NCI)
* New Data Destination (NDD)
* Flags Suppression (NF)
The CPUID leaf is only exposed if the APX feature is enabled.
