Re: [Xen-devel] Get IDT from virtual machine

[Keir Fraser <Keir.Fraser@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That's very wishful code! Unfortunately the IDTR is not exposed via
vcpu_context for HVM guests. The only way to get it right now is to do a hvm
save hypercall and then parse the pickled state to find the IDTR. It
actually should be quite easy.
