The ENQCMD instruction implicitly accesses the PASID_MSR to fill in the pasid field of the descriptor being submitted to an accelerator. But there is no precise (and stable across kernel changes) point at which the PASID_MSR is updated from the value for one task to the next. Kernel code that uses accelerators must always use the ENQCMDS instruction which does not access the PASID_MSR. Check for use of the ENQCMD instruction in the kernel and warn on its usage.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
