KVM: x86: emulate FXSAVE and FXRSTOR
Internal errors were reported on 16 bit fxsave and fxrstor with ipxe. Old Intels don't have unrestricted_guest, so we have to emulate them. The patch takes advantage of the hardware implementation. AMD and Intel differ in saving and restoring other fields in first 32 bytes. A test wrote 0xff to the fxsave area, 0 to upper bits of MCSXR in the fxsave area, executed fxrstor, rewrote the fxsave area to 0xee, and executed fxsave: Intel (Nehalem): 7f 1f 7f 7f ff 00 ff 07 ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 00 ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 00 ff ff 00 00 ff ff 00 00 Intel (Haswell -- deprecated FPU CS and FPU DS): 7f 1f 7f 7f ff 00 ff 07 ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 ff ff 00 00 ff ff 00 00 AMD (Opteron 2300-series): 7f 1f 7f 7f ff 00 ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ee ff ff 00 00 ff ff 02 00 fxsave/fxrstor will only be emulated on early Intels, so KVM can't do much to improve the situation.
