One of these days, I (or some other volunteer ;-)) would need to print out the relevant sections of the SDM, sit down with a marker, a read it line by line marking lines, fields, capabilities, and so on, which we forgot to implement... How about these additions: vmcs_write32(GUEST_SYSENTER_CS, vmcs12->host_ia32_sysenter_cs); vmcs_writel(GUEST_SYSENTER_ESP, vmcs12->host_ia32_sysenter_esp); vmcs_writel(GUEST_SYSENTER_EIP, vmcs12->host_ia32_sysenter_eip); vmcs_writel(GUEST_IDTR_BASE, vmcs12->host_idtr_base); vmcs_writel(GUEST_GDTR_BASE, vmcs12->host_gdtr_base); vmcs_writel(GUEST_TR_BASE, vmcs12->host_tr_base); vmcs_writel(GUEST_GS_BASE, vmcs12->host_gs_base); vmcs_writel(GUEST_FS_BASE, vmcs12->host_fs_base); vmcs_write16(GUEST_ES_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_es_selector); vmcs_write16(GUEST_CS_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_cs_selector); vmcs_write16(GUEST_SS_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_ss_selector); vmcs_write16(GUEST_DS_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_ds_selector); vmcs_write16(GUEST_FS_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_fs_selector); vmcs_write16(GUEST_GS_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_gs_selector); vmcs_write16(GUEST_TR_SELECTOR, vmcs12->host_tr_selector); if (vmcs12->vm_exit_controls & VM_EXIT_LOAD_IA32_PAT) vmcs_write64(GUEST_IA32_PAT, vmcs12->host_ia32_pat); if (vmcs12->vm_exit_controls & VM_EXIT_LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL) vmcs_write64(GUEST_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL, vmcs12->host_ia32_perf_global_ctrl); -- Nadav Har'El | Wednesday, May 25 2011, 21 Iyyar 5771 nyh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |AAAAA: the American Association for the http://nadav.harel.org.il |Abolition of Abbreviations and Acronyms -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
