I'm thinking more of events (exceptions > and interrupts) that caused an EPT violation exit and were recorded in the > IDT-vectored info field. Ah. As is, I don't believe KVM has access to this information. TDX-Module handles the actual EPT violation, as well as event reinjection. The EPT violation reported by SEAMRET is synthesized, and IIRC the IDT-vectoring field is not readable. Regardless, is there an actual a problem with having a "pending" exception that isn't reported to userspace? Obviously the info needs to be migrated, but that will be taken care of by virtue of migrating the VMCS.
