Subject: [PATCH 1/6] KVM: SVM: Advance instruction pointer in dr_intercept
Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2011 18:29:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1297272584-22689-2-git-send-email-joerg.roedel@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1297272584-22689-1-git-send-email-joerg.roedel@amd.com>

In the dr_intercept function a new cpu-feature called
decode-assists is implemented and used when available. This
code-path does not advance the guest-rip causing the guest
to dead-loop over mov-dr instructions. This is fixed by this
patch.
