My assumption (probably wrong) was that KVM would emulate mwait if it's
unavailable,
unless we have KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS enabled. And in the later case it would
explode as expected, however then we shouldn't be able to set
KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS
to begin with.
Recently Sean posted a patch related to that
[PATCH v2 12/49] KVM: x86: Reject disabling of MWAIT/HLT interception when not
allowed
https://lkml.org/lkml/2024/5/17/729
This needs someone with KVM expertise to chime in
Perhaps Paolo/Sean could clarify expected behavior.
