There are other tests that touch the TPR, but they use cr8 so they don't show the bug. > Assuming the KVM unit test actually works, it's not a stretch for the > bug to esacpe, e.g. if the tests weren't run on 4.4.y at all, or were > only run on hardware with x2APIC. Yeah, you should be able to see this with kvm_intel.enable_apicv=0 on newer processors. But I've never run the tests for 4.4.y. Paolo
