Xen devel - Jan 2007 - Information required on vm exit control flow.

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone please tell me from where this function is called and how?
Also how the function works in brief.
Does processor has any roll to perform in its execution?

xen-3.0.3_0-src\xen\arch\x86\hvm\vmx\x86_64\exits.S
|ENTRY(vmx_asm_vmexit_handler)
|        HVM_SAVE_ALL_NOSEGREGS
|        call vmx_trace_vmexit
|        movq %rsp,%rdi
|        call vmx_vmexit_handler   
|        jmp vmx_asm_do_vmentry

With Regards,
Aditya Shevalkar.

vmx_asm_vmexit_handler is the entry point for vmexits - traps from an 
executing fully virtualized guest (using Intel VT) back to Xen. 


cheers,
