    KVM: x86: Control guest reads of MSR_PLATFORM_INFO · 6fbbde9a
    Drew Schmitt 提交于
    Add KVM_CAP_MSR_PLATFORM_INFO so that userspace can disable guest access
    to reads of MSR_PLATFORM_INFO.
    
    Disabling access to reads of this MSR gives userspace the control to "expose"
    this platform-dependent information to guests in a clear way. As it exists
    today, guests that read this MSR would get unpopulated information if userspace
    hadn't already set it (and prior to this patch series, only the CPUID faulting
    information could have been populated). This existing interface could be
    confusing if guests don't handle the potential for incorrect/incomplete
    information gracefully (e.g. zero reported for base frequency).
