New command or include in unlock the checks for various host capabilities that can affect the running of macOS in VMware.

  1. Check ULM v CPL0 mode on Windows by looking for Hyper-V CPUID leaf 0x40000000 = "@Microsoft Hv"
  2. Check if pre-Haswell Intel CPU and warn no Ventura guests possible
  3. Check if AMD CPU warn no Ventura guests possible

These would be warning messages during unlock and would carry on with the patches.

Some useful code for Go:

or my modified cpuid:
