Tested in: My laptop: model 6 / family 15 (core 2 duo T5300). My desktop is family 15 / model 6 (pentium D 930). The "lahf_lm" feature is present in both according to /proc/cpuinfo. Note that the laptop is "low end" core 2 (in the sense it has no VT extensions). The pentium D is "high end" (in the sense it has VT extensions --- low end would be pentium D 8xx). Maybe that makes a difference? OTOH, the kvm 64 bit virtual cpu (kvm 72) doesn't seem to know about the "lahf_lm" (meaning, it won't report it in cpuid, even if the host processor has it. I assume the instructions would work anyway.)
