I think vgic_check_ioaddr() called in kvm_vgic_addr() does the job (it checks the base @) Thanks Eric > > Thanks, > > Alex > >> Thanks, >> Ricardo >> >>> Thanks, >>> >>> Alex >>> >>>> } >>>> >>>> if (IS_VGIC_ADDR_UNDEF(d->vgic_dist_base)) _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm
