Subject: [PATCH v3 11/13] KVM: selftests: Add macros to handle simple VMX instructions
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 16:39:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826233919.998904-12-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826233919.998904-1-seanjc@google.com>
Add macros to build helpers for VMXON, VMPTRLD, and VMCLEAR, i.e. the VMX
instructions that take a VMCS address as input, and don't have outputs.
Getting the params right is annoying, especially when using KVM_ASM_SAFE().
As a bonus, this adds non-asserting double-underscores versions of VMXON
and VMCLEAR for "free".
