Changes

Since Amazon Linux commit
amazonlinux/linux@b2e92ab, KVM passes through bit 27 of the MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR (0x10A) to the guest, to let them know whether the processor they're running on is affected by RFDS. According to Intel, only Atom processors are affected [1], and accordingly, for all instances in our CI this bit is reported to be 1. Thus, update the baselines.

Reason

integration_tests/functional/test_cpu_template_helper.py::test_guest_cpu_config_change failing on x86/6.1

Could you please also update CPU templates with CHANGELOG?

  • T2CL: passthrough the bit (like a628a18)

Could you please also update CPU templates with CHANGELOG?

* T2CL: passthrough the bit (like [a628a18](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/commit/a628a18558de3b087baffc7ec6d1244872353cb2))

* T2S: set the bit (like [7b62670](https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/commit/7b62670ece70c9e9dfb80050eee272fc51cd65ff))

Done, thanks!
