Bug the VM if retrieving the x2APIC MSR/register while processing an accelerated vAPIC trap VM-Exit fails. In theory it's impossible for the lookup to fail as hardware has already validated the register, but bugs happen, and not checking the result of kvm_lapic_msr_read() would result in consuming the uninitialized "val" if a KVM or hardware bug occurs.

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.
