[PATCH 26/41] KVM: Hack real-mode segments on vmx from KVM_SET_SREGS

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Sun Apr 01 2007 - 10:41:09 EST


As usual, we need to mangle segment registers when emulating real mode
as vm86 has specific constraints. We special case the reset segment base,
and set the "access rights" (or descriptor flags) to vm86 comaptible values.

This fixes reboot on vmx.
