[PATCH 06/13] KVM: nVMX: Shadow VMCS controls on a per-VMCS basis

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

 



... to pave the way for not preserving the shadow copies across switches
between vmcs01 and vmcs02, and eventually to avoid VMWRITEs to vmcs02
when the desired value is unchanged across nested VM-Enters.
