[Bug 1855617] [NEW] savevm with hax saves wrong register state


From: Alex
Subject: [Bug 1855617] [NEW] savevm with hax saves wrong register state
Date: Sun, 08 Dec 2019 20:45:40 -0000

Public bug reported:

I use qemu-i386 with IntelHaxm on Windows 10 x64 host with Windows 7 x86 guest. 
I run the guest till OS loads and create a snapshot with savevm, then close 
qemu, run it again and try to load the snapshot with loadvm. The guest crashes 
or freezes. I dumped registers on snapshot creation and loading (in Haxm) and 
found that they are different.
When returning from Haxm in hax_vcpu_hax_exec, there is no regular register 
read. I found hax_arch_get_registers function which reads registers from Haxm 
and is called from a synchronization procedure. I placed a breakpoint on it, 
ran qemu and found that it is hit one time during guest OS boot. Exactly these 
registers where saved in the snapshot.
