Hi,
I got rid of the HVM_FEP condition on the #UD handler.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20260122164943.20691-1-alejandro.garciavallejo@amd.com/
pipeline: https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/agvallejo/xen/-/pipelines/2308391515
Original cover letter:
As discussed in a prior RFC (https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/dc68b9ce-38aa-4949-b3e7-a7c0a7ee9a25@citrix.com/)
this series drops cross-vendor support. It includes the policy check that
was there and adds this on top:
* Eliminates #UD handler when HVM_FEP is disabled.
* Removes the cross-vendor checks from MSR handlers.
* Eliminate Intel-behaviour hacks for SYSENTER on AMD handlers and drop
intercept for SYSENTER.
Open question unrelated to the series: Does it make sense to conditionalise the
MSR handlers for non intercepted MSRs on HVM_FEP?
Cheers,
Alejandro
