I'll get back to this series next week. Thanks for the quick response! > Lets keep the whole intel_pt crud inside x86... In theory, I like the idea of burying intel_pt inside x86 (and even in Intel+VMX code for the most part), but the actual implementation is a bit gross. Because of the whole "KVM can be a module" thing, either the static call and __static_call_return0 would need to be exported, or a new register/unregister pair would have to be exported. The unregister path would also need its own synchronize_rcu(). In general, I don't love duplicating the logic, but it's not the end of the world. Either way works for me.
