Segment registers must be synchronized prior to any code that may
trigger a call to emulation_required()/guest_state_valid(), e.g.
vmx_set_cr0(). Because preparing vmcs02 writes segmentation fields
directly, i.e. doesn't use vmx_set_segment(), emulation_required
will not be re-evaluated when synchronizing the segment registers,
which can result in L0 incorrectly starting emulation of L2.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
