Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Emulator exception improvements
Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 17:53:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1290441207-4250-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
This boring patchset introduces a struct x86_exception to represent an
exception, and uses it to communicate between the emulator and the rest
of kvm. The primary benefit is that we can now pass a #GP from kvm into
the emulator, not just #PFs.
I'd like to also fold vcpu->arch.fault into struct x86_exception, but that's
more difficult, so deferred until later.
Avi Kivity (7):
KVM: x86 emulator: introduce struct x86_exception to communicate
faults
KVM: x86 emulator: make emulator memory callbacks return full
exception
KVM: x86 emulator: drop dead pf injection in emulate_popf()
KVM: x86 emulator: tighen up ->read_std() and ->write_std() error
checks
KVM: x86 emulator: simplify exception generation
KVM: Push struct x86_exception info the various gva_to_gpa variants
KVM: Push struct x86_exception into walk_addr()
