Subject[PATCH] KVM: x86: Always enable legacy fp/sse
Date
From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com>

A live migration under qemu is currently failing when the source
host is ~Nehalem era (pre-xsave) and the destination is much newer,
(configured with a guest CPU type of Nehalem).
QEMU always calls kvm_put_xsave, even on this combination because
KVM_CAP_CHECK_EXTENSION_VM always returns true for KVM_CAP_XSAVE.

When QEMU calls kvm_put_xsave it's rejected by
fpu_copy_uabi_to_guest_fpstate->
copy_uabi_to_xstate->
validate_user_xstate_header

when the validate checks the loaded xfeatures against
user_xfeatures, which it finds to be 0.

I think our initialisation of user_xfeatures is being
too strict here, and we should always allow the base FP/SSE.

Fixes: ad856280ddea ("x86/kvm/fpu: Limit guest user_xfeatures to supported bits of XCR0")
