[PATCHv3 2/8] KVM: SVM: Add VNMI bit definition

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

 



VNMI exposes 3 capability bits (V_NMI, V_NMI_MASK, and V_NMI_ENABLE) to
virtualize NMI and NMI_MASK, Those capability bits are part of
VMCB::intr_ctrl -
V_NMI(11) - Indicates whether a virtual NMI is pending in the guest.
V_NMI_MASK(12) - Indicates whether virtual NMI is masked in the guest.
V_NMI_ENABLE(26) - Enables the NMI virtualization feature for the guest.

When Hypervisor wants to inject NMI, it will set V_NMI bit, Processor
will clear the V_NMI bit and Set the V_NMI_MASK which means the Guest is
handling NMI, After the guest handled the NMI, The processor will clear
the V_NMI_MASK on the successful completion of IRET instruction Or if
VMEXIT occurs while delivering the virtual NMI.

To enable the VNMI capability, Hypervisor need to program
V_NMI_ENABLE bit 1.
