[PATCH] KVM: X86: Enable IA32_MSIC_ENABLE MONITOR bit when exposing mwait/monitor

From: Wanpeng Li
Date: Mon May 13 2019 - 05:48:17 EST


From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

MSR IA32_MSIC_ENABLE bit 18, according to SDM:

| When this bit is set to 0, the MONITOR feature flag is not set (CPUID.01H:ECX[bit 3] = 0).
| This indicates that MONITOR/MWAIT are not supported.
|
| Software attempts to execute MONITOR/MWAIT will cause #UD when this bit is 0.
|
| When this bit is set to 1 (default), MONITOR/MWAIT are supported (CPUID.01H:ECX[bit 3] = 1).

This bit should be set to 1, if BIOS enables MONITOR/MWAIT support on host and
we intend to expose mwait/monitor to the guest.
