To help when debugging failures in the field, if instruction emulation fails, report the VM exit reason to userspace in order that it can be recorded.
I'm unsure whether sgx_handle_emulation_failure() needs to be adapted to use the emulation_failure part of the exit union in struct kvm_run - advice welcomed.
v2: - Improve patch comments (dmatlack) - Intel should provide the full exit reason (dmatlack) - Pass a boolean rather than flags (dmatlack) - Use the helper in kvm_task_switch() and kvm_handle_memory_failure() (dmatlack) - Describe the exit_reason field of the emulation_failure structure (dmatlack)
