Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] enable SVM EFER bit
Date: Tue, 03 Jun 2008 17:02:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48455CEA.40507@suse.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 327 bytes --]

Due to the recently introduces checks for SVM activation, the SVM 
instructions currently throw a #UD exception if they are not activated. 
The activation happens through a write to the EFER which does not 
support the SVM bit yet.

This patch adds the SVME bit to the EFER MSR write. It makes KVM work 
for me again.
