Subject: floating point state?
Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2007 23:02:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1173931342.4611.22.camel@diesel> (raw)

This may just be my unfamiliarity with x86, but I can't see where the
floating point state is being saved, and it doesn't seem to be part of
the KVM_GET_REGS or KVM_GET_SREGS interfaces.

It's being saved and restored fine, but since it's not part of the
userspace interface I guess that would mean FP state is inaccessible to
host tools and will be lost across save/resume?

I don't see where MMX state is being handled at all. Does that work?
