Since there is no interception for load control and load psw instruction in the protected mode, we need a new way to get notified whenever we can inject an IRQ right after the guest has just enabled the possibility for receiving them. The new interception codes solve that problem by providing a notification for changes to IRQ enablement relevant bits in CRs 0, 6 and 14, as well a the machine check mask bit in the PSW. No special handling is needed for these interception codes, the KVM pre-run code will consult all necessary CRs and PSW bits and inject IRQs the guest is enabled for.

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.
