    KVM: selftests: Add a test to force emulation with a pending exception · e337f7e0
    Sean Christopherson authored
    Add a VMX specific test to verify that KVM doesn't explode if userspace
    attempts KVM_RUN when emulation is required with a pending exception.
    KVM VMX's emulation support for !unrestricted_guest punts exceptions to
    userspace instead of attempting to synthesize the exception with all the
    correct state (and stack switching, etc...).
    
    Punting is acceptable as there's never been a request to support
    injecting exceptions when emulating due to invalid state, but KVM has
    historically assumed that userspace will do the right thing and either
    clear the exception or kill the guest.  Deliberately do the opposite and
    attempt to re-enter the guest with a pending exception and emulation
    required to verify KVM continues to punt the combination to userspace,
    e.g. doesn't explode, WARN, etc...
