Microsoft's kdvm.dll dbgtransport module does not respect the hypercall page and simply identifies the CPU being used (AMD/Intel) and according to it simply makes hypercalls with the relevant instruction (vmmcall/vmcall respectively). The relevant function in kdvm is KdHvConnectHypervisor which first checks if the hypercall page has been enabled via HV_X64_MSR_HYPERCALL_ENABLE, and in case it was not it simply sets the HV_X64_MSR_GUEST_OS_ID to 0x1000101010001 which means: build_number = 0x0001 service_version = 0x01 minor_version = 0x01 major_version = 0x01 os_id = 0x00 (Undefined) vendor_id = 1 (Microsoft) os_type = 0 (A value of 0 indicates a proprietary, closed source OS) and starts issuing the hypercall without setting the hypercall page. To resolve this issue simply enable hypercalls also if the guest_os_id is not 0 and the syndbg feature is enabled.
