[RFC 06/10] kvm/x86: add support for storing vCPU state in process-local memory

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

 



The hidden KVM state will both contain guest state that is specific to
x86-64 as well as state specific to SVM or VMX, respectively. Thus,
allocate the hidden state in the code paths specific to SVM and VMX. For
the code that is shared between SVM and VMX, introduce a common struct
for hidden guest state.
