This needs actual documentation in the SDM or at least ISE please.
Hi Andy,
Do you mean SDM or ISE should call out it needs to restore "blocked by
NMI" if bit 12 of exit qualification is set and VMM decides to re-enter
the guest?
you can refer to SDM 27.2.3 "Information about NMI unblocking Due to
IRET" in latest SDM 325462-072US
Notify VM-Exit is defined in ISE, chapter 9.2:
https://software.intel.com/content/dam/develop/external/us/en/documents/architecture-instruction-set-extensions-programming-reference.pdf
I will add this information into commit message. Thank you for reminding
me.
