From a825f5cc4a8455663562809748240169cb9bc2c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nadav Amit Date: Sun, 15 Jun 2014 16:13:01 +0300 Subject: KVM: x86: NOP emulation clears (incorrectly) the high 32-bits of RAX On long-mode the current NOP (0x90) emulation still writes back to RAX. As a result, EAX is zero-extended and the high 32-bits of RAX are cleared.
