摘要
Various embodiments of the present invention introduce privilege-level mapping into a computer architecture not initially designed for supporting virtualization. Privilege-level mapping can, with relatively minor changes to processor logic, fully prevent privileged-level-information leaks by which non-privilege code can determine the current machine-level privilege level at which they are executing. In one embodiment of the present invention, a new privilege-level mapping register is introduced, and privilege-level mapping is enabled for all but code invoked by privileged-level-0-forcing hardware events.
