* Copyright 2015, Cyril Bur, IBM Corp.
*
* This test attempts to see if the VMX registers change across preemption.
* Two things should be noted here a) The check_vmx function in asm only checks
* the non volatile registers as it is reused from the syscall test b) There is
* no way to be sure preemption happened so this test just uses many threads
* and a long wait. As such, a successful test doesn't mean much but a failure
* is bad.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `stdio.h`, `unistd.h`, `sys/syscall.h`, `sys/time.h`, `sys/types.h`, `sys/wait.h`, `stdlib.h`, `pthread.h`.
- Detected declarations: `function test_preempt_vmx`, `function main`.

- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
