- Advertise the max mappable GPA in the "guest MAXPHYADDR" CPUID field, which
is unused by hardware, so that KVM can communicate its inability to map GPAs
that set bits 51:48 due to lack of 5-level paging. Guest firmware is
expected to use the information to safely remap BARs in the uppermost GPA
space, i.e to avoid placing a BAR at a legal, but unmappable, GPA.
- Use vfree() instead of kvfree() for allocations that always use vcalloc()
or __vcalloc().
- Don't completely ignore same-value writes to immutable feature MSRs, as
doing so results in KVM failing to reject accesses to MSR that aren't
supposed to exist given the vCPU model and/or KVM configuration.
- Don't mark APICv as being inhibited due to ABSENT if APICv is disabled
KVM-wide to avoid confusing debuggers (KVM will never bother clearing the
ABSENT inhibit, even if userspace enables in-kernel local APIC).

that set bits 51:48 due to lack of 5-level paging. Guest firmware is

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
