KVM: X86: Fix operand/address-size during instruction decoding
[ Upstream commit 3853be2603191829b442b64dac6ae8ba0c027bf9 ]
Pedro reported:
During tests that we conducted on KVM, we noticed that executing a "PUSH %ES"
instruction under KVM produces different results on both memory and the SP
register depending on whether EPT support is enabled. With EPT the SP is
reduced by 4 bytes (and the written value is 0-padded) but without EPT support
it is only reduced by 2 bytes. The difference can be observed when the CS.DB
field is 1 (32-bit) but not when it's 0 (16-bit).
The internal segment descriptor cache exist even in real/vm8096 mode. The CS.D
also should be respected instead of just default operand/address-size/66H
prefix/67H prefix during instruction decoding. This patch fixes it by also
adjusting operand/address-size according to CS.D.
