Subject: [PATCH] VMX: Handle mmio emulation when guest state is invalid
Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2008 09:39:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081029093942.585fc517@frecb000711> (raw)
If emulate_invalid_guest_state is enabled, the emulator is called
when guest state is invalid. Until now, we reported an mmio failure
when emulate_instruction() returned EMULATE_DO_MMIO. This patch adds
the case where emulate_instruction() failed and an MMIO emulation
is needed.
