As evidenced by the myriad patches leading up to this moment, using an inline asm blob for vCPU-run is nothing short of horrific. It's also been called "unholy", "an abomination" and likely a whole host of other names that would violate the Code of Conduct if recorded here and now. The code is relocated nearly verbatim, e.g. quotes, newlines, tabs and __stringify need to be dropped, but other than those cosmetic changes the only functional changees are to add the "call" and replace the final "jmp" with a "ret". Note that STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD is also dropped from __vmx_vcpu_run().

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
