KVM: x86: Whitelist port 0x7e for pre-incrementing %rip
KVM's recent bug fix to update %rip after emulating I/O broke userspace that relied on the previous behavior of incrementing %rip prior to exiting to userspace. When running a Windows XP guest on AMD hardware, Qemu may patch "OUT 0x7E" instructions in reaction to the OUT itself. Because KVM's old behavior was to increment %rip before exiting to userspace to handle the I/O, Qemu manually adjusted %rip to account for the OUT instruction. Arguably this is a userspace bug as KVM requires userspace to re-enter the kernel to complete instruction emulation before taking any other actions. That being said, this is a bit of a grey area and breaking userspace that has worked for many years is bad. Pre-increment %rip on OUT to port 0x7e before exiting to userspace to hack around the issue.
