xen_failsafe_callback() is invoked from XEN for two cases: 1. Fault while reloading DS, ES, FS or GS 2. Fault while executing IRET #1 retries the IRET after XEN has fixed up the segments. #2 injects a #GP which kills the task For #1 there is no reason to go through the full exception return path because the tasks TIF state is still the same. So just going straight to the IRET path is good enough.

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.
