UCR (uncorrected recovery) MCE is supported in recent Intel CPUs, where some hardware error such as some memory error can be reported without PCC (processor context corrupted). To recover from such MCE, the corresponding memory will be unmapped, and all processes accessing the memory will be killed via SIGBUS. For KVM, if QEMU/KVM is killed, all guest processes will be killed too. So we relay SIGBUS from host OS to guest system via a UCR MCE injection. Then guest OS can isolate corresponding memory and kill necessary guest processes only. SIGBUS sent to main thread (not VCPU threads) will be broadcast to all VCPU threads as UCR MCE.
