[PATCH 0/7] KVM: SVM: baby steps towards nested state migration
From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Fri May 15 2020 - 13:42:11 EST
Here are some refactorings to prepare for an SVM implementation of
KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE. It's a prerequisite for that to eliminate
exit_required, moving exceptions to svm_check_nested_events. However:
- I might work on that soon, because it's needed to handle RSM when
the L1 hypervisor wants to get it from #UD rather than the specific
RSM intercept
- this should be enough to get a quick prototype, that I need in order to
debug a particularly crazy bug and figure out its reproducibility.
So, I am getting these patches out of my todo list for now.
Thanks,
Paolo
