Hi,
I'm playing around with the debug functions of the x86 processor and specifically trying to work with debugCtl functionality (http://support.amd.com/us/Processor_TechDocs/24593_APM_v2.pdf, page 353).
I tried to activate this feature by writing (in kernel mode) 1 to the msr number 1d9 but when reading the value back I get a 0.
after a few hours of debugging my code I tried it on my physical computer and it worked.
I wanted to know whether I need to change the configuration to enable this feature or its not supported, and if it's supported in another in another vmware product.
Thanks
Yoav
Hi
Try to hideit's vm status.
First
monitor_control.virtual_rdtsc = "false"
monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = "true"
Second
isolation.tools.getPtrLocation.disable = "true"
isolation.tools.setPtrLocation.disable = "true"
isolation.tools.setVersion.disable = "true"
isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = "true"
Third
monitor_control.disable_directexec = "true"
I searched around and found that it's not supported
