[PATCH v4 kvmtool 12/12] vfio: Trap MMIO access to BAR addresses which aren't page aligned

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

 



KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION will fail if the guest physical address is
not aligned to the page size. However, it is legal for a guest to
program an address which isn't aligned to the page size. Trap and
emulate MMIO accesses to the region when that happens.

Without this patch, when assigning a Seagate Barracude hard drive to a
VM I was seeing these errors:

With this patch, I don't see the errors and the device works as
expected.
