• As part of my ongoing effort to make nested SVM useful, I started working to get
    VMware ESX run inside KVM.
    
    VMware couples itself pretty tightly to the CPUID, so it's a good idea to emulate
    a machine that officially supports SVM and should thus exploit the powers of
    nested virtualization.
    
    This patch adds a Phenom CPU identifier, that resembles a real-world phenom
    CPU as closely as possible.

  • Newer AMD CPUs have the FFXSR capability. This leaves out XMM
    register in FXSAVE/FXRESTORE when in CPL=0 and 64-bit mode.
    
    This is required for Hyper-V.
