Subject: [PATCH v3 4/8] KVM: selftests: Extend state_test to check next_rip
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 00:59:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225005950.3739782-5-yosry@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260225005950.3739782-1-yosry@kernel.org>
Similar to vGIF, extend state_test to make sure that next_rip is saved
correctly in nested state. GUEST_SYNC() in L2 causes IO emulation by
KVM, which advances the RIP to the value of next_rip. Hence, if next_rip
is saved correctly, its value should match the saved RIP value.
