| Thread-topic: | trap/interrupt gate for hypercall |
Just a curious question about IDT descriptor type for hypercall. What's the reason to use interrupt-gate type (14) for hypercall (0x82) on 32bit Xen? Is there any special requirement on interrupt disabled at entrance? Interesting thing is the compat mode on 64bit Xen which use 64bit trap-gate type (15) for hypercall from 32bit guest... Thanks, Kevin _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
