Subject: [PATCH] KVM: VMX: do not exit to user space with error when PML full VMEXIT occurs during event delivery
Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2016 13:54:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CY1PR08MB19928812C32DCE70A46AE33CF0330@CY1PR08MB1992.namprd08.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 201607151313.u6FDDnDT017747@dev1.sn.stratus.com

With PML enabled, guest will shut down if a PML full VMEXIT occurs during
event delivery. According to Intel SDM 27.2.3, PML full VMEXIT can occur when
event is being delivered through IDT, so KVM should not exit to user space
with error. Instead, it should let EXIT_REASON_PML_FULL go through and the
event will be re-injected on the next VMENTRY.
