Actually this issue is very nearly handled by xen-3.1-testing:15064 and xen-unstable:15066. The HVM state load code that sets guest efer should barf on !cpu_has_nx && EFER_NX, just as the wrmsr-handling code does. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
