And there are already control register checks (cr0 and cr4) in nested_vmx_check_vmentry_postreqs(). It probably makes sense to first add the PAT check as a direct call along side the cr0 and cr4 checks, and then tack on a patch to add nested_check_guest_ctrl_dbg_regs_msrs(). > + > if (nested_check_guest_non_reg_state(vmcs12)) > return VMXERR_ENTRY_INVALID_CONTROL_FIELD; > > -- > 2.17.2 >
