From 8c7bb723b4e36dbd4b144176116d126104dc65e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Avi Kivity Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 00:34:02 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] KVM: MMU: Ignore pcd, pwt, and pat bits on ptes The pcd, pwt, and pat bits on page table entries affect the cpu cache. Since the cache is a host resource, the guest should not be able to control it. Moreover, the meaning of these bits changes depending on whether pat is enabled or not. So, force these bits to zero on shadow page table entries at all times. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- Reading git-format-patch failed
