+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86/emulate: Correct boundary interactions of emulated
+ instructions
+
+This reverts most of c/s 0640ffb6 "x86emul: fix rIP handling".
+
+Experimentally, in long mode processors will execute an instruction stream
+which crosses the 64bit -1 -> 0 virtual boundary, whether the instruction
+boundary is aligned on the virtual boundary, or is misaligned.
+
+In compatibility mode, Intel processors will execute an instruction stream
+which crosses the 32bit -1 -> 0 virtual boundary, while AMD processors raise a
+segmentation fault. Xen's segmentation behaviour matches AMD.
+
+For 16bit code, hardware does not ever truncated %ip. %eip is always used and
+behaves normally as a 32bit register, including in 16bit protected mode
+segments, as well as in Real and Unreal mode.
+
+This is XSA-186
