发明名称 Executing system management mode code as virtual machine guest
摘要 In one embodiment, a register in a processor is programmable with an intercept indication indicative of whether or not an event that would cause a transition by the processor to a first mode is to be intercepted during execution of a guest. Responsive to the intercept indication and further responsive to detecting the event, execution circuitry in the processor is configured to exit the guest. In another embodiment, a method comprises: detecting an event that would cause a processor to transition to a first mode, wherein first code is to be executed in the first mode; and causing the first code to be executed in a guest responsive to the detecting. In still another embodiment, a computer accessible medium comprising instructions which when executed in response to detecting the event, cause the first code to be executed in a guest.
