When a guest is using xAPIC KVM allocates a backing page for the required EPT entry for the APIC access address set in the VMCS. If mm decides to move that page the KVM mmu notifier will update the VMCS with the new HPA. This test induces a page move to test that APIC access continues to work correctly. It is a directed test for commit e649b3f0188f "KVM: x86: Fix APIC page invalidation race". Tested: ran for 1 hour on a skylake, migrating backing page every 1ms Depends on patch "selftests: kvm: Add exception handling to selftests" from aaronlewis@google.com that has not yet been queued.

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.
