Hi Jan, I was wondering if we should not let the code fall through and clear all registers to zero but rather clear just the one bit we care about? My concern is that a future Intel revision may expand this function and return other information besides that XSAVEOPT, which would then be wiped out by the fall-through code. I''m thinking something like this. Let me know if I have

The first patch really isn''t as much of a follow-up than what triggered the security issues to be noticed in the first place. 1: x86: preserve FPU selectors for 32-bit guest code 2: x86: fix XCR0 handling 3: x86/xsave: adjust state management 4: x86/fxsave: bring in line with recent xsave adjustments The first two I would see as candidates for 4.3 (as well as subsequent backporting,

x86:x2apic: Disable x2apic on x86-32 permanently x2apic initialization on x86_32 uses vcpu pointer before it is initialized. As x2apic is unlikely to be used on x86_32, this patch disables x2apic permanently on x86_32. It also asserts the sanity of vcpu pointer before dereference to prevent further misuse.

identify_cpu() is used to identify both the boot CPU and secondary CPUs, but it performs some actions which only apply to the boot CPU. Those functions are therefore really __init functions, but because they're called by identify_cpu(), they must be marked __cpuinit. This patch splits identify_cpu() into identify_boot_cpu() and identify_secondary_cpu(), and calls the appropriate init

With the x86 instruction emulator no pretty complete, I''d like to re-submit this patch to support cmpxchg16b on x86-64 and at once rename the underlying emulator callback function pointer (making clear that if implemented, it is to operate on two longs rather than two 32-bit values). At the same time it fixes an apparently wrong emulator context initialization in the shadow code.

Unlike the earlier version it uses ALTERNATIVE instruction and avoids using xen_sysexit (and sysret32 in compat mode) pv ops, as suggested by Andy.
