Subject: [PATCH v3 12/26] KVM: nSVM: Refactor minimal #VMEXIT handling out of nested_svm_vmexit()
Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2025 19:27:07 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251215192722.3654335-14-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251215192722.3654335-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev>
In preparation for having a separate minimal #VMEXIT path for handling
failed VMRUNs, move the minimal logic out of nested_svm_vmexit() into a
helper.
This includes clearing the GIF, handling single-stepping on VMRUN, and a
few data structure cleanups. Basically, everything that is required by
the architecture (or KVM) on a #VMEXIT where L2 never actually ran.
Additionally move uninitializing the nested MMU and reloading host CR3
to the new helper. It is not required at this point, but following
changes will require it.
No functional change intended.
