Hi, I am calling show_code() at the end of handle_exception() function. >From code trace I can see that it exits for HLT instruction. Minix boot monitor calls HLT in getch() function while waiting for keyboard interrupt.
There is a handler handle_halt() for handling exits due to HLT instruction. But instead of that handle_exception() handler is getting called. I can see that kvm is getting EXIT_REASON_EXCEPTION_NMI instead of EXIT_REASON_HLT. Am i doing something wrong ? How is this possible ? Regards, Ameya.
