2020-07-13	docs: kvm: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones	Alexander A. Klimov	1	-1/+1
	Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w\|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

2020-04-21	KVM: nVMX: Remove non-functional "support" for CR3 target values	Sean Christopherson	1	-4/+1
	Remove all references to cr3_target_value[0-3] and replace the fields in vmcs12 with "dead_space" to preserve the vmcs12 layout. KVM doesn't support emulating CR3-target values, despite a variety of code that implies otherwise, as KVM unconditionally reports '0' for the number of supported CR3-target values. This technically fixes a bug where KVM would incorrectly allow VMREAD and VMWRITE to nonexistent fields, i.e. cr3_target_value[0-3]. Per Intel's SDM, the number of supported CR3-target values reported in VMX_MISC also enumerates the existence of the associated VMCS fields: If a future implementation supports more than 4 CR3-target values, they will be encoded consecutively following the 4 encodings given here. Alternatively, the "bug" could be fixed by actually advertisting support for 4 CR3-target values, but that'd likely just enable kvm-unit-tests given that no one has complained about lack of support for going on ten years, e.g. KVM, Xen and HyperV don't use CR3-target values.

2020-02-12	docs: kvm: Convert nested-vmx.txt to ReST format	Mauro Carvalho Chehab	1	-0/+245
	This file is almost in ReST format. Just a small set of changes were needed: - Add markups for lists; - Add markups for a literal block; - Adjust whitespaces. While here, use the standard markup for the document title. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
