[PATCH v6 1/4] KVM: x86: Clarify the kvm_run.emulation_failure structure layout

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

 



Until more flags for kvm_run.emulation_failure flags are defined, it
is undetermined whether new payload elements corresponding to those
flags will be additive or alternative. As a hint to userspace that an
alternative is possible, wrap the current payload elements in a union.
