Subject: [PATCH 16/28] KVM: nVMX: pass advanced EPT violation vmexit info to guest
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2026 11:07:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260430150747.76749-17-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260430150747.76749-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
KVM will use advanced vmexit information for EPT violations to
virtualize MBEC. Pass it to the guest since it is easy and allows
testing nested nested.
Tested-by: David Riley <d.riley@proxmox.com>
