Oh, sorry for my bad memory. I'm not sure it's about SEP.
I shouldn't have taken 'SandyBridge' model as an example because 32bit Win8 can
boot up on 'SandyBridge' model.
'qemu64' is the default CPU model in QEMU/KVM on x86-64, but its 'family
number' definition is not accurate.
The vendor of 'qemu64' is defined as 'AMD'.
For AMD processors, AMD K8 CPU (e.g. AMD Family 15) firstly introduced SSE3
instruction set.
'qemu64' already has 'CPUID_EXT_SSE3' in its ext_features, but its family
number is only 6 (not equal or bigger than 15).
If I update the family number of 'qemu64' to '15', 32bit Win8 guest can boot up
with the default 'qemu64' CPU model.
32bit Win8 may have some requirements of a 64bit CPU model.
The following patch can be a fix for 'qemu64' definition.

Yes, I'm talking about 32bit Windows 8. The CPU does not support 64bit. Booting with "-cpu coreduo" or "core2duo" does not show the 5D error but a black screen after a few minutes. I'm not able to do a successful boot of the installation ISO with KVM. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
