The rfid/hrfid ((Hypervisor) Return From Interrupt) instruction is used for switching from the kernel to userspace, and from the hypervisor to the guest kernel. However it can and is also used for other transitions, eg. from real mode kernel code to virtual mode kernel code, and it's not always clear from the code what the destination context is. To make it clearer when reading the code, add macros which encode the expected destination context.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
