RE: [PATCH] target/i386/hax: Add XCR0 support

[Wang, Wenchao]

Hi, Paolo,

As HAXM v7.8.0 is released and it added XCR0 support, could you help to merge 
this patch to add corresponding support into HAX user space of QEMU? The patch 
has been attached below. Thanks.


Best Regards,
Wenchao

Thanks for Phillippe's reply.

Hi, Paolo,

Could you help to review the patch of HAX? If there is any concern about it, 
feel free to discuss with me. Thanks a lot.


Best Regards,
Wenchao

I don't understand this part of HAXM enough, but per your explanation, your 
change looks correct. I'll let Paolo decide :)

Phil.
