[PATCH 1/2] KVM: Write the per-page "segment" when clearing (part of) a guest page

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

 



Pass "seg" instead of "len" when writing guest memory in kvm_clear_guest(),
as "seg" holds the number of bytes to write for the current page, while
"len" holds the total bytes remaining.

Luckily, all users of kvm_clear_guest() are guaranteed to not cross a page
boundary, and so the bug is unhittable in the current code base.
