OS usually expects BIOS to set certain bits in MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL for some features (e.g. VMX and LMCE). QEMU provides a fw_cfg file "etc/msr_feature_control" to advise bits that should be set in MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL. If this file exists, SeaBIOS will set the advised bits in that MSR.
Signed-off-by: Haozhong Zhang haozhong.zhang@intel.com --- QEMU patch added fw_cfg file etc/msr_feature_control can be found at [1]. Note I mistakenly used u32 as the type of file content in that patch, which should be u64 and will be fixed.
