Thanks for the reply and it makes a lot of sense.

I am not seeing any EPT tables being zapped after the guest has fully started up although the value of EPTP continuously changes as the guest is running.

Really strange, this is likely a bug.


I tried to reproduce, the only times I see eptp changes are when the guest reprograms the vga adapter:

Under what scenario do you see eptp changing?
