the virtual processor status register without any intercepts to the VMM; and the last
value written to the vpsr will be returned, unless a fault condition is detected (see
for details). The value returned for the fml, mfh, ac, up and be bits are
simply the values of those bits in the PSR of the logical processor, since those bits are
not virtualized.
If this optimization is disabled, execution of a MOV-from-PSR instruction with
PSR.vm==1 results in a virtualization intercept.
Synchronization is required when this optimization is enabled, see
details.
When this optimization is enabled, certain VPD state is accessed, as described in
Table 11-16, “Virtual Processor Descriptor (VPD)” on page 2:326
.
Note:
This field cannot be enabled together with the d_psr_i virtualization disable
control (vdc) described in
Section 11.7.4.3.7, “Disable PSR Interrupt-bit Virtu-
. If this control is enabled together with the d_psr_i
control, an error will be returned during PAL_VP_CREATE and
PAL_VP_REGISTER. See
Section 11.7.4.4, “Virtualization Optimization Combi-
for details.
11.7.4.2.5 MOV-from-CPUID Optimization
The MOV-from-CPUID optimization is enabled by the a_from_cpuid bit in the
Virtualization Acceleration Control (
vac
) field in the VPD. When this optimization is
enabled, software running with PSR.vm==1 will be able to execute MOV-from-CPUID
instruction to read the virtual CPUID registers without any intercepts to the VMM; and
the corresponding VCPUID value from the VPD will be returned, unless a fault condition
is detected (see
for details).
If this optimization is disabled, execution of a MOV-from-CPUID instruction with
PSR.vm==1 results in a virtualization intercept.
Synchronization is required when this optimization is enabled, see
details.
When this optimization is enabled, certain VPD state is accessed, as described in
Table 11-16, “Virtual Processor Descriptor (VPD)” on page 2:326
.

Interruptions
MOV-from-PSR
When the MOV-from-PSR optimization is enabled, MOV-from-PSR
instructions with PSR.vm==1, may raise the following faults:
• Illegal Operation fault – if the target operand specifies GR 0 or
an out-of-frame stacked register
• Privileged Operation fault – if vpsr.cpl is not zero
