Pull x86 cpu-features updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest change in this cycle was a large series from Sean Christopherson to clean up the handling of VMX features. This both fixes bugs/inconsistencies and makes the code more coherent and future-proof. There are also two cleanups and a minor TSX syslog messages enhancement" * 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (23 commits) x86/cpu: Remove redundant cpu_detect_cache_sizes() call x86/cpu: Print "VMX disabled" error message iff KVM is enabled KVM: VMX: Allow KVM_INTEL when building for Centaur and/or Zhaoxin CPUs perf/x86: Provide stubs of KVM helpers for non-Intel CPUs KVM: VMX: Use VMX_FEATURE_* flags to define VMCS control bits KVM: VMX: Check for full VMX support when verifying CPU compatibility KVM: VMX: Use VMX feature flag to query BIOS enabling KVM: VMX: Drop initialization of IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR x86/cpufeatures: Add flag to track whether MSR IA32_FEAT_CTL is configured x86/cpu: Set synthetic VMX cpufeatures during init_ia32_feat_ctl() x86/cpu: Print VMX flags in /proc/cpuinfo using VMX_FEATURES_* x86/cpu: Detect VMX features on Intel, Centaur and Zhaoxin CPUs x86/vmx: Introduce VMX_FEATURES_* x86/cpu: Clear VMX feature flag if VMX is not fully enabled x86/zhaoxin: Use common IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR initialization x86/centaur: Use common IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR initialization x86/mce: WARN once if IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR is left unlocked x86/intel: Initialize IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR at boot tools/x86: Sync msr-index.h from kernel sources selftests, kvm: Replace manual MSR defs with common msr-index.h ...
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
