FYI https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19146

Not possible to boot installer of NetBSD 9.0RC1. cc me as I am not
subscribed to list.

CPUID values are ... = guest (host):

IBRS_IBPB - IA32_SPEC_CTRL.IBRS and IA32_PRED_CMD.IBPB  = 0 (1)
STIBP - Supports IA32_SPEC_CTRL.STIBP                   = 0 (1)
SSBD - Supports IA32_SPEC_CTRL.SSBD                     = 0 (1)

so the NetBSD guest is told the cpu doesn't support IA32_SPEC_CTRL (0x48),
but still the guest tries to read it:


NetBSD 8.1 STABLE amd64 on same configuration with same values boots
just fine and works.

00:00:11.518912 IEM: rdmsr(0x48) -> #GP(0)
00:00:11.518920 Changing the VM state from 'RUNNING' to 'GURU_MEDITATION'
