__svm_stgi

Microsoft Specific

This topic is new for Visual Studio 2005 SP1.

Sets the global interrupt flag.

void __svm_stgi(void);

Remarks

The __svm_stgi function is equivalent to the STGI machine instruction. The global interrupt flag determines whether the microprocessor ignores, postpones, or handles interrupts due to events such as an I/O completion, a hardware temperature alert, or a debug exception.

This function supports the interaction of a host's virtual machine monitor with a guest operating system and its applications.
