[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] x86/cpu: Enable UMONITOR/UMWAIT/TPAUSE cpu feat


From: Jingqi Liu
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] x86/cpu: Enable UMONITOR/UMWAIT/TPAUSE cpu features
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2018 16:57:32 +0800

UMONITOR, UMWAIT, and TPAUSE are a set of user wait instructions.

UMONITOR arms address monitoring hardware using an address. A store
to an address within the specified address range triggers the
monitoring hardware to wake up the processor waiting in umwait.

UMWAIT instructs the processor to enter an implementation-dependent
optimized state while monitoring a range of addresses. The optimized
state may be either a light-weight power/performance optimized state
or an improved power/performance optimized state.

TPAUSE instructs the processor to enter an implementation-dependent
optimized state c0.1 or c0.2 state and wake up when time-stamp counter
reaches specified timeout.

The bit definition:
CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 05] WAITPKG
