If KVM enable_vmware_backdoor module parameter is set, the commit change VMX to now intercept #GP instead of being directly deliviered from CPU to guest. It is done to support access to VMware backdoor I/O ports even if TSS I/O permission denies it. In that case: 1. A #GP will be raised and intercepted. 2. #GP intercept handler will simulate I/O port access instruction. 3. I/O port access instruction simulation will allow access to VMware backdoor ports specifically even if TSS I/O permission bitmap denies it. Note that the above change introduce slight performance hit as now #GPs are not deliviered directly from CPU to guest but instead cause #VMExit and instruction emulation. However, this behavior is introduced only when enable_vmware_backdoor KVM module parameter is set.
