It's completely up to the guest how to interpret the NMI. It's also subtly broken with kernel irqchip - it injects an NMI unconditionally even though LINT1 can be configured to mask NMIs, or to do something other than queue an NMI (for example, queue a regular interrupt). Please note this. On second thoughts, I'll just document this instead of telling you what to write. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- 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
