The reason is, in 64Bit compat the MSR_EFER_SCE is still enabled but syscall is not always available by cpu in such modes. (I also compared always with a physical computer's behaviour.) See Intel or even AMD-doku (http://support.amd.com/us/Processor_TechDocs/APM_V3_24594.pdf) page 376. Of course in 64bit it should NOT crash (and indeed I haven't observed it, yet) but if I have cpuid GenuineIntel it should behave like Intel cpu and not like some special AMD. (Otherwise I could overwrite the vendor and then the patch will emulate AMD...) ??What could be a good speedup: Reordering the EFER check and the real-mode checks (I would have to check doku, but EFER is 0 in realmode, isn't it?), then checking if (not)longmode and then: I think, the patch ->only<- (and only!?) becomes a little bit slower exactly in this situation (32bit compat under 64bit long) because in every other case? the first ifs (testing the MSR_EFER and the mode) should decide to #UD... (At all it should be faster at the end, then it is now ?) ...I'll prepare a patch for what I mean...
