Re: [RFH] NULL pointer dereference oops occurs when running kvm VM

Thanks for your reply :)

I'm confused that it throw an exception "NULL pointer dereference" when
implement "mov    0x45114(%rip),%rax" instruction. Because "0x45114(%rip)" couldn't be NULL.
Will thread stack overflow result in Oops which is hard to explain like this?

Reproducing is ongoing...


Regards~
