Thanks! I will update my patch and send a v2 shortly. I got really curious while I was debugging this issue: - Is it ok that the cpu has other features enabled (like PKRU), while our vcpu does not have them? - Should guest OS always use the cpuid for checking features available? - Would it be better if we could have exactly the same fpu features enabled in the cpu, as we have in the vcpu? - Why do we xsave with a mask different from what we xrstor ? > > Paolo >
