+KVM CPUID bits
+==============
+
+:Author: Glauber Costa <glommer@gmail.com>
+
+A guest running on a kvm host, can check some of its features using
+cpuid. This is not always guaranteed to work, since userspace can
+mask-out some, or even all KVM-related cpuid features before launching
+a guest.
+
+KVM cpuid functions are:
+
+function: KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000)
+
+returns::
+
+   eax = 0x40000001
+   ebx = 0x4b4d564b
+   ecx = 0x564b4d56
+   edx = 0x4d
+
+Note that this value in ebx, ecx and edx corresponds to the string "KVMKVMKVM".
+The value in eax corresponds to the maximum cpuid function present in this leaf,
+and will be updated if more functions are added in the future.
+Note also that old hosts set eax value to 0x0. This should
+be interpreted as if the value was 0x40000001.
+This function queries the presence of KVM cpuid leafs.
+
+function: define KVM_CPUID_FEATURES (0x40000001)
+
+returns::
+
+          ebx, ecx
+          eax = an OR'ed group of (1 << flag)
