Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] x86/MCE: Present MSR_IA32_MCx_MISC(2-6) as invalid on AMD



On 12.03.13 16:32, Boris Ostrovsky wrote:
MSR_IA32_MCx_MISC(4) register on AMD processors is used for error
thresholding. PV guests may try to set it up for threshold
interrupts which will fail and result in these warnings in the log:

   [Firmware Bug]: cpu 0, try to use APIC510 (LVT offset 1) for vector
   0xf9, but the register is already in use for vector 0x0 on this cpu

Mark this register as invalid to avoid this. While at it, also present
other MSR_IA32_MCx_MISC() registers as invalid (except for the first
GUEST_MC_BANK_NUM which are emulated).
