[PATCH 0/5] KVM: x86: Various bug fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch-set includes various bug fixes.

The most notable bug is the wrong decoding of guest instructions which cross
page boundary. I am surprised it does not happen in real-systems.

Please review carefully the changes the DR4/5 bug-fix introduces to SVM part.
Since I do not have AMD machine I could not check the patch. Anyhow, I suspect
SVM dr-interception is buggy since in certain cases instructions are skipped
while fault is injected.

Thanks for reviewing the patches.
