Yeah, the patchset is mostly completed. But I have to switch to do EPT
enabling these days so don't have time to do more test and push them out...
I tested patchset by NMI watchdog(also introduce the logic of the NMI
watchlog), about one thousand NMI per second at most. The patchset also did
some clean up on VMX interrupt handling. I would like to push the patch next
week (if the EPT things can be done this week or early next week). Sorry for
keep you waiting so long...
