Right, but please be careful and test that you get correct values with all events (page fault events + the others), I remember that for some reason I needed to use different ways to get at the same values in p2m_vm_event_fill_regs() and hvm_event_fill_regs(). For example, p2m_vm_event_fill_regs() does: hvm_funcs.save_cpu_ctxt(curr, &ctxt); req->data.regs.x86.cr0 = ctxt.cr0; and hvm_event_fill_regs() does: req->data.regs.x86.cr0 = curr->arch.hvm_vcpu.guest_cr[0]; I don't remember exactly why I had to do that at the time, but I do recall it being necessary.
