Currently most of the debug registers are not saved and restored during VM transitions allowing guest and host debug register values to leak into the opposite context. One result is that hardware watchpoints do not work reliably within a guest under VT-x. Due to differences in SVM and VT-x, slightly different approaches are used. For VT-x: - Enable debug register save/restore for VM entry/exit in the VMCS for DR7 and MSR_DEBUGCTL. - Explicitly save DR0-3,6 of the guest. - Explicitly save DR0-3,6-7, MSR_DEBUGCTL, and the trap flag from %rflags for the host. Note that because DR6 is "software" managed and not stored in the VMCS a kernel debugger which single steps through VM entry could corrupt the guest DR6 (since a single step trap taken after loading the guest DR6 could alter the DR6 register). To avoid this, explicitly disable single-stepping via the trace flag before loading the guest DR6. A determined debugger could still defeat this by setting a breakpoint after the guest DR6 was loaded and then single-stepping. For SVM: - Enable debug register caching in the VMCB for DR6/DR7. - Explicitly save DR0-3 of the guest. - Explicitly save DR0-3,6-7, and MSR_DEBUGCTL for the host. Since SVM saves the guest DR6 in the VMCB, the race with single-stepping described for VT-x does not exist. For both platforms, expose all of the guest DRx values via --get-drX and --set-drX flags to bhyvectl.

FreeBSD
For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel
and installkernel
targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel
and installkernel
targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.
