Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2017 21:58:24 -0400 Message-Id: <1502848704-7474-1-git-send-email-tianyu.lan@intel.com> X-Mailer: git-send-email 1.8.3.1 To: unlisted-recipients:; (no To-header on input) Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 2094 Lines: 57 These CR3 VMEXITs was introduced for platform without "unrestricted guest" support. This is to set ept identity table to guest CR3 in guest real mode because these platforms don't support ept real mode(CR0.PE and CR0.PG must be set to 1). But these VMEXITs is redundant for platforms with "unrestricted guest" support.
