KVM: x86: Expose AVX512_FP16 for supported CPUID
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.11-rc1 commit 2224fc9e category: feature feature: SPR New Instructions Virtualization bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/intel-kernel/issues/I5O6WB CVE: N/A Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/ commit/?id=2224fc9e Intel-SIG: commit 2224fc9e ("KVM: x86: Expose AVX512_FP16 for supported CPUID") ------------------------------------- KVM: x86: Expose AVX512_FP16 for supported CPUID AVX512_FP16 is supported by Intel processors, like Sapphire Rapids. It could gain better performance for it's faster compared to FP32 if the precision or magnitude requirements are met. It's availability is indicated by CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX[bit 23]. Expose it in KVM supported CPUID, then guest could make use of it; no new registers are used, only new instructions.
