[PATCH v5 05/27] KVM: x86: Suppress code #DBs on Intel if MOV/POP SS blocking is active

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

 



Suppress code breakpoints if MOV/POP SS blocking is active and the guest
CPU is Intel, i.e. if the guest thinks it's running on an Intel CPU.
Intel CPUs inhibit code #DBs when MOV/POP SS blocking is active, whereas
AMD (and its descendents) do not.
