[PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: fix KVM_SET_XCRS for CPUs that do not support XSAVE

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Thu Oct 17 2013 - 10:51:03 EST


The KVM_SET_XCRS ioctl must accept anything that KVM_GET_XCRS
could return. XCR0's bit 0 is always 1 in real processors with
XSAVE, and KVM_GET_XCRS will always leave bit 0 set even if the
emulated processor does not have XSAVE. So, KVM_SET_XCRS must
ignore that bit when checking for attempts to enable unsupported
save states.

Introduced between v2 and v3, when I stopped hardcoding
XSTATE_FPSSE in guest_supported_xcr0.
