+Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nSVM: Advertise support for flush-by-ASID
+
+Advertise support for FLUSHBYASID when nested SVM is enabled, as KVM can
+always emulate flushing TLB entries for a vmcb12 ASID, e.g. by running L2
+with a new, fresh ASID in vmcb02.  Some modern hypervisors, e.g. VMWare
+Workstation 17, require FLUSHBYASID support and will refuse to run if it's
+not present.
+
+Punt on proper support, as "Honor L1's request to flush an ASID on nested
+VMRUN" is one of the TODO items in the (incomplete) list of issues that
+need to be addressed in order for KVM to NOT do a full TLB flush on every
+nested SVM transition (see nested_svm_transition_tlb_flush()).
