Subject: [PATCH v4 2/9] KVM: SVM: Refactor SVM instruction handling on #GP intercept
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 20:27:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260316202732.3164936-3-yosry@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260316202732.3164936-1-yosry@kernel.org>
Instead of returning an opcode from svm_instr_opcode() and then passing
it to emulate_svm_instr(), which uses it to find the corresponding exit
code and intercept handler, return the exit code directly from
svm_instr_opcode(), and rename it to svm_instr_exit_code().
emulate_svm_instr() boils down to synthesizing a #VMEXIT or calling the
intercept handler, so open-code it in gp_interception(), and use
svm_invoke_exit_handler() to call the intercept handler based on
the exit code. This allows for dropping the SVM_INSTR_* enum, and the
const array mapping its values to exit codes and intercept handlers.
In gp_intercept(), handle SVM instructions first with an early return,
un-indenting the rest of the code.
No functional change intended.
