[PATCH v2 5/8] KVM: Do not incorporate page offset into gfn=>pfn cache user address

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

 



Don't adjust the userspace address in the gfn=>pfn cache by the page
offset from the gpa.  KVM should never use the user address directly, and
all KVM operations that translate a user address to something else
require the user address to be page aligned.  Ignoring the offset will
allow the cache to reuse a gfn=>hva translation in the unlikely event
that the page offset of the gpa changes, but the gfn does not.
