[PATCH] KVM: x86 emulator: fix unlocked CMPXCHG8B emulation.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



    
When CMPXCHG8B is executed without LOCK prefix it is racy. Preserve this
behaviour in emulator too.

This patch goes on top of my previous "KVM: x86 emulator: add decoding
of CMPXCHG8B dst operand." patch.
