[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v7 15/17] target-i386: Use Hypervisor level in -machine pc, accel=tcg.

[Don Slutz]

Part of "target-i386: Add way to expose VMWare CPUID"

Also known as Paravirtualization level.

QEMU knows this as KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000) in kvm on linux.

This does not provide vendor support in tcg yet.

>From http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1205.0/00100.html
kvm has this issue:

"Note also that old hosts set eax value to 0x0. This should
be interpreted as if the value was 0x40000001."

This change is based on:
