[PATCH 1/2] KVM: VMX: Move VMREAD cleanup to exception handler

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

 



We clean up a failed VMREAD by clearing the output register.  Do
it in the exception handler instead of unconditionally.  This is
worthwhile since there are more than a hundred call sites.
