[PATCH 1/2] KVM: Exception during emulation decode should propagate

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

 



An exception might occur during decode (e.g., #PF during fetch).
Currently, the exception is ignored and emulation is performed.
Instead, emulation should be skipped and the fault should be injected.
Skipping instruction should report a failure in this case.
