[PATCH v2 8/9] KVM: x86: add force_intercept_exceptions_mask

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

 



This parameter will be used by VMX and SVM code to force
interception of a set of exceptions, given by a bitmask
for guest debug and/or kvm debug.

This option is not intended for production.

This is based on an idea first shown here:
