KVM: x86: ignore access permissions for hypercall patching

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

 



Ignore access permissions while patching hypercall instructions. 
Otherwise KVM injects a page fault when trying to patch vmcall 
on read-only text regions:

Freeing initrd memory: 8843k freed
Freeing unused kernel memory: 660k freed
Write protecting the kernel text: 4780k
Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 1912k
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at c01292e3
IP: [<c01292e3>] kvm_leave_lazy_mmu+0x43/0x70
*pde = 00910067 *pte = 00129161
Oops: 0003 [#1] SMP
