With my current Patch it is defined as:

.macro KVM_HANDLER ivor_nr scratch srr0
_GLOBAL(kvmppc_handler_\ivor_nr)
        /* Get pointer to vcpu and record exit number. */
        mtspr   \scratch , r4
        mfspr   r4, SPRN_SPRG_THREAD
        lwz     r4, THREAD_KVM_VCPU(r4)
        __KVM_HANDLER \ivor_nr \scratch \srr0
.endm

.macro KVM_DBG_HANDLER ivor_nr scratch srr0
_GLOBAL(kvmppc_handler_\ivor_nr)

<<<<<<Debug related handling>>>>>

1:      /* debug interrupt happened in guest */
        mtcr    r3
        mfspr   r4, SPRN_SPRG_THREAD
        lwz     r4, THREAD_KVM_VCPU(r4)
        lwz     r3, VCPU_CRIT_SAVE(r4)
        __KVM_HANDLER \ivor_nr \scratch \srr0
.endm

So the kvmppc_handler_\ivor_nr is defined and should always be at the start of exception handling?

So if KVM_DBG_HANDLER need to call KVM_HANDLER then there will be issue of 2 definition for DBG interrupt.

I am sorry but I did not understood how you want this to define. Can you please describe ?

Thanks
