摘要： In one embodiment, a request to transition control to a virtual machine (VM) is received from a virtual machine monitor (VMM) and a determination is made as to whether the VMM has requested a delivery of a fault to the VM. If the determination is positive, the fault is delivered to the VM when control is transitioned to the VM.

摘要： In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a set of multiplex blocks coupled with an interrupt controller and multiple interrupt request lines, and a virtual machine monitor block (VMM) coupled to the set of multiplex blocks. Each multiplex block corresponds to a distinct interrupt request line. Each multiplex block is to route the interrupt request signal received via the corresponding interrupt request line either to the interrupt controller or the VMM block depending on a current configuration value of this multiplex block.

摘要： Embodiments of apparatuses, methods, and systems for injecting virtualization events in a layered virtualization architecture are disclosed. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes virtual machine entry logic, recognition logic, and evaluation logic. The virtual machine entry logic is to initiate a transfer of control of the apparatus from a host to a guest running on a virtual machine. The recognition logic is to recognize a request from the host to inject a virtualization event into the virtual machine. The evaluation logic is to identify an intervening monitor to handle the virtualization event.

摘要： In one embodiment, a method includes transitioning control to a virtual machine (VM) upon receiving a request from a virtual machine monitor (VMM), determining that the request to transition control is associated with a request to be informed of an open event window, performing an event window check to determine whether an even window of the VM is open, and transitioning control to the VMM if the event window check indicates that the event window of the VM is open.

摘要： Methods and systems to provide support for single stepping a virtual machine in a virtual machine environment are disclosed. An exemplary method may include receiving a request to transition control to a virtual machine (VM) from a virtual machine monitor (VMM), determining that a single-stepping indicator is set to a single stepping value, and transitioning control to the VM. Further, if an execution of a first instruction in the VM completes successfully, control is transitioned to the VMM following the successful completion of the execution of the first instruction.
