Interesting. But is the `KVM` running an `id` function or is the translation just quite similar to the original code (but not certainly the same)?
Well, KVM is (mostly) not translating the code at all, but running the guest code in a "virtual machine" on the host CPU. Only some few opcodes and things like I/O accesses have to be emulated in that case.
