  • Thread-topic: [Patch] Enable SMEP CPU feature support for XEN itself

Intel new CPU supports SMEP (Supervisor Mode Execution Protection). SMEP 
prevents
kernel from executing code in user. Updated Intel SDM describes this CPU 
feature.
The document will be published soon.

This patch enables SMEP in Xen to protect Xen hypervisor from executing pv guest
code, and kills a pv guest triggering SMEP fault.
