Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/7] cpu model bug fixes and definition corrections: Correct archaic CPU model "model" field for Intel CPUs.
Date: Mon, 23 May 2011 17:46:25 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DDAD5B1.7010800@redhat.com> (raw)

Correct archaic CPU model "model" field for Intel CPUs.
The old "model" values caused two known problems:

    - Skype crashes on a winxp guest if model < 6, due to syscall vs.
      sysenter confusion.

    - 32 bit windows doesn't enable MSI support if model < 13.

After consulting with Intel the following recommendations were
received which more accurately represent shipped silicon.
