[PATCH v2] target/i386: Restore TSX features with taa-no


From: Zhenzhong Duan
Subject: [PATCH v2] target/i386: Restore TSX features with taa-no
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2022 13:36:31 +0800

On ICX-2S2 host, when run L2 guest with both L1/L2 using Icelake-Server-v3
or above, we got below warning:

"warning: host doesn't support requested feature: MSR(10AH).taa-no [bit 8]"

This is because L1 KVM doesn't expose taa-no to L2 if RTM is disabled,
then starting L2 qemu triggers the warning.

Fix it by restoring TSX features in Icelake-Server-v3, which may also help
guest performance if host isn't susceptible to TSX Async Abort (TAA)
vulnerabilities.

Fixes: d965dc35592d ("target/i386: Add ARCH_CAPABILITIES related bits into 
Icelake-Server CPU model")
