[PATCH] kvm: x86: Remove obsolet SS.RPL/DPL aligment

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

 



From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This seems to date back to the days KVM didn't support real mode. The
check is no longer needed and, even worse, is corrupting the guest state
in case SS.RPL != DPL.
