My guess would be that it's xsetbv. If it is then you probably want to make sure you are running hypervisor that has commit e8121c54 ("x86/xsave: enable support for new ISA extensions"). Looks like the first version that has it is 4.5 and you seem to be running 4.4.2. Copying Jan to see if there are plans to backport this (probably not since it's a new feature). -boris
