Subject: [PATCH v5 04/15] x86/HVM: Hardware alternate p2m support detection.
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 17:14:52 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436832903-12639-5-git-send-email-edmund.h.white@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1436832903-12639-1-git-send-email-edmund.h.white@intel.com>
As implemented here, only supported on platforms with VMX HAP.
By default this functionality is force-disabled, it can be enabled
by specifying altp2m=1 on the Xen command line.
