__svm_vmrun

Microsoft Specific

This topic is new for Visual Studio 2005 SP1.

Starts execution of the virtual machine guest code that corresponds to the specified virtual machine control block (VMCB).

void __svm_vmrun(
   size_t VmcbPhysicalAddress
);

Parameters

Remarks

The __svm_vmrun function uses a minimal amount of information in the VMCB to begin executing the virtual machine guest code. Use the __svm_vmsave or __svm_vmload function if you require more information to handle a complex interrupt or to switch to another guest.

The __svm_vmrun function is equivalent to the VMRUN machine instruction. This function supports the interaction of a host's virtual machine monitor with a guest operating system and its applications.
