KVM CPUID bits
==============
:Author: Glauber Costa <glommer@gmail.com>
A guest running on a kvm host, can check some of its features using
cpuid. This is not always guaranteed to work, since userspace can
mask-out some, or even all KVM-related cpuid features before launching
a guest.
KVM cpuid functions are:
function: KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000)
returns::
eax = 0x40000001
ebx = 0x4b4d564b
ecx = 0x564b4d56
edx = 0x4d
Note that this value in ebx, ecx and edx corresponds to the string "KVMKVMKVM".
The value in eax corresponds to the maximum cpuid function present in this leaf,
and will be updated if more functions are added in the future.
Note also that old hosts set eax value to 0x0. This should
be interpreted as if the value was 0x40000001.
This function queries the presence of KVM cpuid leafs.
function: define KVM_CPUID_FEATURES (0x40000001)
returns::
ebx, ecx
eax = an OR'ed group of (1 << flag)

영어 원문의 문단 순서와 의미를 유지한 전체 번역입니다. 코드, 함수명, symbol과 URL은 원문 표기를 유지합니다.
게스트의 KVM 기능 탐지
1-15KVM host에서 실행하는 guest는 CPUID로 일부 KVM 기능을 확인할 수 있습니다. 그러나 userspace가 guest 실행 전에 일부 또는 모든 KVM CPUID feature를 mask할 수 있으므로 host 지원이 항상 guest 노출로 이어지지는 않습니다.

A guest running on a kvm host, can check some of its features using
cpuid. This is not always guaranteed to work, since userspace can

a guest.
KVM cpuid functions are:
KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE
16-31`KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000)` leaf는 KVM CPUID leaf 존재와 signature를 보고합니다.
반환 register 값입니다.
미래 leaf가 추가되면 EAX 최대값도 갱신됩니다. 오래된 host의 EAX=0은 `0x40000001`로 해석해야 합니다.
function: KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000)
returns::
eax = 0x40000001
ebx = 0x4b4d564b
ecx = 0x564b4d56
edx = 0x4d
Note that this value in ebx, ecx and edx corresponds to the string "KVMKVMKVM".

KVM_CPUID_FEATURES
32-124`KVM_CPUID_FEATURES (0x40000001)`의 EAX는 `(1 << flag)`를 OR한 feature bitmap이고 EBX·ECX는 이 문서에서 별도 의미를 정의하지 않습니다.
guest가 MSR 또는 하이퍼콜 기능 사용 전에 확인하는 비트입니다.
EDX는 별도 hint bitmap입니다. 현재 bit 0의 `KVM_HINTS_REALTIME`은 vCPU가 무제한 시간 선점되지 않음을 guest에 알려 관련 최적화를 허용합니다.
function: define KVM_CPUID_FEATURES (0x40000001)
