You get that failure because you're being passed a size that is not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE. That's the mistake. You should ensure that this never happens, rather than changing the page table walkers (which are consistent with the way this kind of code is written in other places of the kernel). As you mentioned in your first patch, the real issue is that KSM is broken, and this is what should be fixed. Thanks, M. -- Jazz is not dead. It just smells funny... _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm
