Hi,

while testing the guest multi-core code, I realized that all of the 
cpuid_* values (like cpuid_ext_features,...) from CPUX86State are not 
dumped in the migration stream. Is this intentional behavior (to let the 
user specify other bits in the target?) or has this just been forgotten?
Does KVM call the SET_CPUID2 ioctl after or before migration?

Regards,
Andre.
