[PATCH 21/21] KVM: x86: Return UNHANDLABLE on unsupported SYSENTER

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that KVM injects #UD on "unhandlable" error, it makes better sense to
return such error on sysenter instead of directly injecting #UD to the guest.
This allows to track more easily the unhandlable cases the emulator does not
support.
