[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 6/6] x86/HVM: report the set of enabled emulated devices through CPUID

[Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Add a new HVM-specific feature flag that signals the presence of a bitmap
that contains the current set of enabled emulated devices. The bitmap is
placed in the ecx register. The bit fields used in the bitmap are the same
as the ones used in the xen_arch_domainconfig emulation_flags field, and
their meaning can be found at arch-x86/xen.h.

This will allow Xen to enable emulated devices for HVMlite guests in the
future, by having a proper ABI for reporting which devices are enabled.
