Abstract
A hypervisor configures a page table entry in a host page table to map an address associated with memory-mapped input-output (MMIO) for a virtual device of a guest of the hypervisor to an input/output (I/O) instruction. The address is marked in the page table entry as a hypervisor exit entry, and the page table entry to cause an exit to the hypervisor responsive to the guest attempting to access the address. Responsive to detecting an exit to the hypervisor caused by the guest attempting to access the address, the hypervisor receives the I/O instruction mapped to the address that caused the exit. The hypervisor then executes the I/O instruction on behalf of the guest.
