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.
