- Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue when the
guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when handling an SMI and
then returning to paged mode via RSM.
- Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR values if the
TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber host MSRs as expected.
- Leave the user-return notifier used to restore MSRs registered when
disabling virtualization, and instead pin kvm.ko. Restoring host MSRs via
IPI callback is either pointless (clean reboot) or dangerous (forced reboot)
since KVM has no idea what code it's interrupting.
- Use the checked version of {get,put}_user(), as Linus wants to kill them
off, and they're measurably faster on modern CPUs due to the unchecked
versions containing an LFENCE.
- Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for periodic APIC
timers can result in a hard lockup in the host.
- Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
clocksource that's subject to NPT corrections.
- Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the latter
behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS.
- Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fastpath as
the only reason they were handled in the faspath was to paper of a bug in
the core #MC code that has long since been fixed.
- Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions to play nice with emulated
devices whose PCI BARs guest drivers like to access with large multi-byte
instructions.

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.
