[patch 63/88] KVM: Fix cpuid iteration on multiple leaves per eac

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Apr 30 2009 - 13:35:46 EST



2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Nitin A Kamble <nitin.a.kamble@xxxxxxxxx>

(cherry picked from 0fdf8e59faa5c60e9d77c8e14abe3a0f8bfcf586)

The code to traverse the cpuid data array list for counting type of leaves is
currently broken.

This patches fixes the 2 things in it.

1. Set the 1st counting entry's flag KVM_CPUID_FLAG_STATE_READ_NEXT. Without
it the code will never find a valid entry.

2. Also the stop condition in the for loop while looking for the next unflaged
entry is broken. It needs to stop when it find one matching entry;
and in the case of count of 1, it will be the same entry found in this
iteration.
