[PATCH 5/5] KVM: SVM: Don't allow nested guest to VMMCALL into host

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

 



This patch disables the possibility for a l2-guest to do a
VMMCALL directly into the host. This would happen if the
l1-hypervisor doesn't intercept VMMCALL and the l2-guest
executes this instruction.
