[PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: x86: use new CS.RPL as CPL during task switch

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Thu May 15 2014 - 12:51:50 EST


During task switch, all of CS.DPL, CS.RPL, SS.DPL must match (in addition
to all the other requirements) and will be the new CPL. So far this
worked by carefully setting the CS selector and flag before doing the
task switch; however, this will not work once we get the CPL from SS.DPL:
setting SS itself would fail if the task switch changes the privilege
level.

Temporarily assume that the CPL comes from CS.RPL during task switch
to a protected-mode task. This is the same approach used in QEMU's
emulation code, which (until version 2.0) manually tracks the CPL.
