Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 2/4] Enable VirtualPC 2007 run on top of XEN: fxsave emulation
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.3.6.070618
Emulate by calling ->load_fpu_ctxt() hook, then "fxsave" into a private
buffer and then call ->write() hook a word at a time. Slow, but probably
fast enough and avoids having another hook.

Ultimately I plan to improve the read/write hooks to accept arbitrary length
parameters.
