[PATCH 24/27] KVM: PPC: PV mtmsrd L=1

Alexander Graf agraf at suse.de
Thu Jul 1 20:42:59 EST 2010


The PowerPC ISA has a special instruction for mtmsr that only changes the EE
and RI bits, namely the L=1 form.

Since that one is reasonably often occuring and simple to implement, let's
go with this first. Writing EE=0 is always just a store. Doing EE=1 also
requires us to check for pending interrupts and if necessary exit back to the
hypervisor.
