[Xen-devel] xc_domain_hvm_getcontext_partial(... CPU ...), the RIP register, and mem_event



Hello,

assuming that the VCPU is paused while waiting for userspace to respond to a page fault mem_event, and userspace calls libxc's xc_domain_hvm_getcontext_partial(... CPU ...) and tries to inspect RIP, is this a safe thing to do? Is RIP's value guaranteed to be safe to inspect in this context?

Thanks,
Razvan Cojocaru
