[PATCH 1/1] KVM: inject data abort if instruction cannot be decoded
From: Heinrich Schuchardt
Date: Wed Sep 04 2019 - 14:20:26 EST
If an application tries to access memory that is not mapped, an error
ENOSYS, "load/store instruction decoding not implemented" may occur.
QEMU will hang with a register dump.
Instead create a data abort that can be handled gracefully by the
application running in the virtual environment.
Now the virtual machine can react to the event in the most appropriate
way - by recovering, by writing an informative log, or by rebooting.
