KVM has two bugs in the handling of MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES:
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
1) Linux commit commit 1eaafe91a0df ("kvm: x86: IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES
9ae3a8
   is always supported") makes GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID return
9ae3a8
   arch_capabilities even if running on SVM.  This makes "-cpu
9ae3a8
   host,migratable=off" incorrectly expose arch_capabilities on CPUID on
9ae3a8
   AMD hosts (where the MSR is not emulated by KVM).
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
2) KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST does not return MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES if
9ae3a8
   the MSR is not supported by the host CPU.  This makes QEMU not
9ae3a8
   initialize the MSR properly at kvm_put_msrs() on those hosts.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
Work around both bugs on the QEMU side, by checking if the MSR
9ae3a8
was returned by KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST before returning the
9ae3a8
feature flag on kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid().
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
This has the unfortunate side effect of making arch_capabilities
9ae3a8
unavailable on hosts without hardware support for the MSR until bug #2
9ae3a8
is fixed on KVM, but I can't see another way to work around bug #1
9ae3a8
without that side effect.
