No. > AFAICT, even turning off cpuid bits for things like async pf doesn't > actually disable the MSRs (which is arguably an attack surface issue). No, it doesn't. You cannot disable instructions even if you hide CPUID bits, so KVM just extends this to MSRs (both native and paravirtual). It sometimes helps too, for example with a particular guest OS that does not necessary check CPUID for bits that are always present on Apple hardware...
