[PATCH v7 03/17] target-i386: Add Hypervisor features.

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

 



Part of "target-i386: Add way to expose VMWare CPUID"

Also known as kvm festures or Hypervisor vendor-neutral interface identification.
This is the EAX value for 0x40000001.

QEMU knows this is KVM_CPUID_FEATURES (0x40000001) in some builds.

This is based on:
