Unlike VMX, SVM allows a hypervisor to take a SMI vmexit without having any special SMM-monitor enablement sequence. Therefore, it has to be handled like interrupts and NMIs. Check for an unblocked SMI in svm_check_nested_events() so that pending SMIs are correctly prioritized over IRQs and NMIs when the latter events will trigger VM-Exit. Note that there is no need to test explicitly for SMI vmexits, because guests always runs outside SMM and therefore can never get an SMI while they are blocked.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
