add SandyBridge CPU model
This patches add the definition of a SandyBridge CPU model. Summary of differences: Flags present on actual hardware, but not on the added model definition: - pbe, tm, ht, ss, acpi, vme, xTPR, tm2, eist, smx: host-specific features, not exposed to guest. - ds, ds-cpl, dtes64, pdcm: emulation not supported by KVM (although it may be added in the future if implementing PMU virtualization) - pcid, vmx, monitor: not emulated by Qemu/KVM right now. - osxsave: set by the guest OS, not by Qemu. Flags added, that were not present on Westmere model: - xsave: already supported by Qemu - avx, pclmulqdq: all new state the new instructions could use is handled by xsave state loading/saving code. - tsc-deadline, x2apic, rdtscp: already supported by Qemu/KVM. Below there's a comparison of the features on the current Westmere CPU model, and the SandyBridge CPU model. - The "full" line contains the flags found on actual hardware. - The "missing" line shows the flags that are present on actual hardware, but not on the added SandyBridge model. - The "new" line shows the flags that were not on the Westmere model, but are on SandyBridge. feature_edx: Westmere: sse2 sse fxsr mmx clflush pse36 pat cmov mca pge mtrr sep apic cx8 mce pae msr tsc pse de fpu full: pbe tm ht ss sse2 sse fxsr mmx ds acpi clflush pse36 pat cmov mca pge mtrr sep apic cx8 mce pge msr tsc pse de vme fpu SandyBridge: sse2 sse fxsr mmx clflush pse36 pat cmov mca pge mtrr sep apic cx8 mce pae msr tsc pse de fpu missing: pbe tm ht ss ds acpi vme feature_ecx: Westmere: aes popcnt sse4.2 sse4.1 cx16 ssse3 sse3 full: avx osxsave xsave aes tsc-deadline popcnt x2apic sse4.2 sse4.1 pcid pdcm xTPR cx16 ssse3 tm2 eist smx vmx ds-cpl monitor dtes64 pclmulqdq sse3 SandyBridge: avx xsave aes tsc-deadline popcnt x2apic sse4.2 sse4.1 cx16 ssse3 pclmulqdq sse3 missing: osxsave pcid pdcm xTPR tm2 eist smx vmx ds-cpl monitor dtes64 new: avx xsave tsc-deadline x2apic pclmulqdq extfeature_edx: Westmere: i64 nx syscall full: i64 rdtscp nx syscall SandyBridge: i64 rdtscp nx syscall new: rdtscp extfeature_ecx: Westmere: lahf_lm full: lahf_lm SandyBridge: lahf_lm Cc: "Dugger, Donald D" <donald.d.dugger@intel.com> Cc: "Zhang, Xiantao" <xiantao.zhang@intel.com> Acked-by: Xiantao Zhang <xiantao.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
