From: Joerg Roedel Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 14:36:57 +0000 (+0100) Subject: KVM: SVM: support writing 0 to K8 performance counter control registers X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=62b9abaaf8423a3a38b938831b3b8431a6607ad8;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git KVM: SVM: support writing 0 to K8 performance counter control registers This lets SVM ignore writes of the value 0 to the performance counter control registers. Thus enabling them will still fail in the guest, but a write of 0 which keeps them disabled is accepted. This is required to boot Windows Vista 64bit.
