[XEN PATCH v4 06/14] x86/p2m: guard EPT functions with using_vmx() check
Posted by Sergiy Kibrik 2 months, 1 week ago
From: Xenia Ragiadakou <burzalodowa@gmail.com>

Replace cpu_has_vmx check with using_vmx(), so that we do check if functions
ept_p2m_init() and ept_p2m_uninit() can be called.
Since currently Intel EPT implementation depends on CONFIG_VMX config option,
when VMX is off these functions are unavailable.

changes in v4:
 - changed description a bit
 - added tag
 - adjusted call to using_vmx(), as it has become an inline function
changes in v3:
 - using_vmx instead of IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VMX)
 - updated description

I still find this an odd way of putting it. Source code ...

... is very clear about them being called. What you're after is the compiler
DCEing the calls in generated code.
