[PATCH 3.2 1/4] kvm: nVMX: Allow L1 to intercept software exceptions (#BP and #OF)

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

 



3.2.86-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jim Mattson <jmattson@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit ef85b67385436ddc1998f45f1d6a210f935b3388 upstream.

When L2 exits to L0 due to "exception or NMI", software exceptions
(#BP and #OF) for which L1 has requested an intercept should be
handled by L1 rather than L0. Previously, only hardware exceptions
were forwarded to L1.
