[PATCH v2 03/15] KVM: x86/xen: Don't truncate RAX when handling hypercall from protected guest
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu May 14 2026 - 17:54:52 EST
Don't truncate RAX when handling a Xen hypercall for a guest with protected
state, as KVM's ABI is to assume the guest is in 64-bit for such cases
(the guest leaving garbage in 63:32 after a transition to 32-bit mode is
far less likely than 63:32 being necessary to complete the hypercall).
Fixes: b5aead0064f3 ("KVM: x86: Assume a 64-bit hypercall for guests with protected state")
