Right, I had one in my first version based on interception but I forgot
to implement an equivalent for KVM as I modified the implementation for
interpretation.
I will add this.

Yes, Nico is correct, as I already answered, however it is not any
change of stsi(15) but a change of stsi(15.1.2) output which sets the
change bit.
However the socket identifier is relative to the book and not unique for
the all system.
The solution given by Heiko is, of course, the most elegant so I will
use it.

Thanks,
