x86info does report sep, but arch/i386/kernel/cpu/intel.c has this to say:

Hi Ingo, hi Avi, hi all,
I'm trying to use kvm-20 with cfs v4 and get a crash:

error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function
Hi everyone,
I'd like to compile kvm with debugging symbols so I can post a
backtrace for a segfault I'm seeing in kvm-20. I've tried hacking the
Makefiles to add -g and -DDEBUG in various places, but it seems like
there has to be a better way to do it. What's the recommended way of
doing this?

hi,
I am trying to run unix like operating system (mainly meant for educational
purposes) on kvm called "Unix Lite" (http://www.unixlite.org/). It runs fine on
qemu but on kvm it gives the unhandled vm exit 0x9. This is caused by the
hardware task switch that is used in unix lite. The code
