Subject: added FS_BASE and GS_BASE MSRs to passthrough set.
X-Git-Url: http://v3vee.org/palacios/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3e31ab96d49dcd604f85f9f81a7acc37a43ef036;p=palacios.git

added FS_BASE and GS_BASE MSRs to passthrough set.

I think these MSRs are probably hardwired directly to the GDT entries, so there is no need to virtualize them.
This is good because the hardware does not provide any virtualization support for these two MSRs at all.

Of course I might be wrong about this...
