Probe MSR_TSC_AUX whether or not RDTSCP is supported in the host, and if probing succeeds, load the guest's MSR_TSC_AUX into hardware prior to VMRUN. Because SVM doesn't support interception of RDPID, RDPID cannot be disallowed in the guest (without resorting to binary translation). Leaving the host's MSR_TSC_AUX in hardware would leak the host's value to the guest if RDTSCP is not supported. Note, there is also a kernel bug that prevents leaking the host's value. The host kernel initializes MSR_TSC_AUX if and only if RDTSCP is supported, even though the vDSO usage consumes MSR_TSC_AUX via RDPID. I.e. if RDTSCP is not supported, there is no host value to leak. But, if/when the host kernel bug is fixed, KVM would start leaking MSR_TSC_AUX in the case where hardware supports RDPID but RDTSCP is unavailable for whatever reason. Probing MSR_TSC_AUX will also allow consolidating the probe and define logic in common x86, and will make it simpler to condition the existence of MSR_TSX_AUX (from the guest's perspective) on RDTSCP *or* RDPID.

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 Restructured Text 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.
