The per-VM capability KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD (to be introduced in a later commit) adds the following fields to struct kvm_vcpu_events: exception_has_payload, exception_payload, and exception.pending. With this capability set, all of the details of vcpu->arch.exception, including the payload for a pending exception, are reported to userspace in response to KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS. With this capability clear, the original ABI is preserved, and the exception.injected field is set for either pending or injected exceptions. When userspace calls KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS with KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD clear, exception.injected is no longer translated to exception.pending. KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS can now only establish a pending exception when KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD is set.

README
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.
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.
