Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 03/17] target-i386: Add Hypervisor level.
Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2012 20:13:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1348272809-27742-4-git-send-email-Don@CloudSwitch.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1348272809-27742-1-git-send-email-Don@CloudSwitch.com>

Also known as Paravirtualization level or maximim cpuid function present in this leaf.
This is just the EAX value for 0x40000000.

QEMU knows this is KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000).

This is based on:

Microsoft Hypervisor CPUID Leaves:
  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff542428%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

Linux kernel change starts with:
  http://fixunix.com/kernel/538707-use-cpuid-communicate-hypervisor.html
Also:
  http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1205.0/00100.html

VMware documention on CPUIDs (Mechanisms to determine if software is
running in a VMware virtual machine):
  http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1009458

QEMU has the value HYPERV_CPUID_MIN defined.
