From 57c22e5f35aa4b9b2fe11f73f3e62bbf9ef36190 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" Date: Wed, 2 May 2012 17:55:56 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: fix cpuid eax for KVM leaf cpuid eax should return the max leaf so that guests can find out the valid range. This matches Xen et al. Update documentation to match. Tested with -cpu host. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
