[PATCH 24/58] KVM: VMX: Handle #SS faults from real mode

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Sun Jun 17 2007 - 06:04:16 EST


From: Nitin A Kamble <nitin.a.kamble@xxxxxxxxx>

Instructions with address size override prefix opcode 0x67
Cause the #SS fault with 0 error code in VM86 mode. Forward
them to the emulator.
