The host reports support for the synthetic feature X86_FEATURE_SSBD when any of the three following hardware features are set: CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.SSBD[bit 31] CPUID.80000008H:EBX.AMD_SSBD[bit 24] CPUID.80000008H:EBX.VIRT_SSBD[bit 25]
Either of the first two hardware features implies the existence of the IA32_SPEC_CTRL MSR, but CPUID.80000008H:EBX.VIRT_SSBD[bit 25] does not. Therefore, CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.SSBD[bit 31] should only be set in the guest if CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.SSBD[bit 31] or CPUID.80000008H:EBX.AMD_SSBD[bit 24] is set on the host.
