KVM allows the deferral of exception payloads when a vCPU is in guest
mode to allow the L1 hypervisor to intercept certain events (#PF, #DB)
before register state has been modified. However, this behavior is
incompatible with the KVM_{GET,SET}_VCPU_EVENTS ABI, as userspace
expects register state to have been immediately modified. Userspace may
opt-in for the payload deferral behavior with the
KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD per-VM capability. As such,
kvm_multiple_exception() will immediately manipulate guest registers if
the capability hasn't been requested.
Since the deferral is only necessary if a userspace ioctl were to be
serviced at the same as a payload bearing exception is recognized, this
behavior can be relaxed. Instead, opportunistically defer the payload
from kvm_multiple_exception() and deliver the payload before completing
a KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS ioctl.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
