Apart from this nit, it's okay. On to kvm_mmu_get_page... if (!direct) { if (rmap_write_protect(vcpu, gfn)) kvm_flush_remote_tlbs(vcpu->kvm); if (level > PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL && need_sync) kvm_sync_pages(vcpu, gfn); This seems fishy. need_sync is set if sp->unsync, but then the parents have not been unsynced yet. On the other hand, all calls to kvm_mmu_get_page except for the roots are followed by link_shadow_page... Perhaps if parent_pte != NULL you can call link_shadow_page directly from kvm_mmu_get_page. The call would go before the "if (!direct)" and it would subsume all the existing calls. We could probably also warn if (parent_pte == NULL) != (level == vcpu->arch.mmu.root_level) in kvm_mmu_get_page.
