[PATCH 1/6] KVM: nVMX: we support 1GB EPT pages

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Wed Mar 08 2017 - 13:33:40 EST


Large pages at the PDPE level can be emulated by the MMU, so the bit
can be set unconditionally in the EPT capabilities MSR. The same is
true of 2MB EPT pages, though all Intel processors with EPT in practice
support those.
