From 1fdbd48c242db996107f72ae4140ffe8163e26a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andre Przywara Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 12:44:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: ignore reads from AMDs C1E enabled MSR If the Linux kernel detects an C1E capable AMD processor (K8 RevF and higher), it will access a certain MSR on every attempt to go to halt. Explicitly handle this read and return 0 to let KVM run a Linux guest with the native AMD host CPU propagated to the guest.
