Subject: [PATCH 0/4] TSX force abort
Message-ID: <cover.2d906c322f72ec1420955136ebaa7a4c5073917c.1623272033.git-series.pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com>

Introduction
============
On some Intel processors [1] a microcode update will always abort
Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX) transactions by default. These
CPUs were previously affected by the TSX memory ordering issue [2]. A
workaround was earlier added to perf related to memory ordering which is no
longer required(because TSX is defeatured on these systems). This series adds
support for new bits added to TSX_FORCE_ABORT MSR and CPUID to enumerate new
abort behavior and to bypass the workaround.

Roadmap to this series
======================

0001:	Define new CPUID and MSR bits that are added by the microcode update.
	(The new CPUID.RTM_ALWAYS_ABORT is not shown in /proc/cpuinfo)

0002:	When new microcode is enumerated bypass perf counter workaround for [1].
	Perf workaround is no longer required after the microcode update.

0003:	Clear CPUID.RTM and CPUID.HLE when TSX is defeatured, so that software
	does not enumerate and try to use TSX.

0004:	Add tsx=fake cmdline option to not hide CPUID.RTM and CPUID.HLE. This
	may be desirable when resuming saved guest image that require RTM and HLE
	feature bits to be present.

Thanks,
Pawan
