Subject: [PATCH V4 5/7] x86/entry: Don't call error_entry for XENPV
Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2022 22:30:14 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220318143016.124387-6-jiangshanlai@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220318143016.124387-1-jiangshanlai@gmail.com>

From: Lai Jiangshan <jiangshan.ljs@antgroup.com>

When in XENPV, it is already in the task stack, and it can't fault
for native_iret() nor native_load_gs_index() since XENPV uses its own
pvops for iret and load_gs_index().  And it doesn't need to switch CR3.
So there is no reason to call error_entry() in XENPV.
