7A guest VM running on an ACRN hypervisor can check some of its features using
8CPUID.

10ACRN cpuid functions are:

12function: 0x40000000

14returns::

16   eax = 0x40000010
17   ebx = 0x4e524341
18   ecx = 0x4e524341
19   edx = 0x4e524341
20
21Note that this value in ebx, ecx and edx corresponds to the string
22"ACRNACRNACRN". The value in eax corresponds to the maximum cpuid function
23present in this leaf, and will be updated if more functions are added in the
24future.
