+7.31 KVM_CAP_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT
+------------------------------
+
+:Architectures: x86
+:Target: VM
+:Parameters: args[0] is the value of notify window
+:Returns: 0 on success, -EINVAL if hardware doesn't support notify VM exit.
+
+This capability allows userspace to configure the notify VM exit on/off
+in per-VM scope during VM creation. Notify VM exit is disabled by default.
+When userspace provides a non-negative value in args[0], VMM would enable
+this feature to trigger VM exit if no event window occurs in VM non-root
+mode for a specified of time (notify window). The notify window is just
+determined by args[0].
+
+This capability is aimed to mitigate the threat that malicious VMs can
+cause CPU stuck (due to event windows don't open up) and make the CPU
+unavailable to host or other VMs.
