From bac27d35cbbf7c641efcc75b5330df8717d6db65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Avi Kivity Date: Sun, 5 Aug 2007 10:16:11 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86 emulator: fix debug reg mov instructions More fallout from the writeback fixes: debug register transfer instructions do their own writeback and thus need to disable the general writeback mechanism. This fixes oopses and some guest failures on AMD machines (the Intel variant decodes the instruction in hardware and thus does not need emulation).
