Marcelo, The splitting has been done in emulator_read_write_onepage: while (bytes) { unsigned now = min(bytes, 8U); frag = &vcpu->mmio_fragments[vcpu->mmio_nr_fragments++]; frag->gpa = gpa; frag->data = val; frag->len = now; frag->write_readonly_mem = (ret == -EPERM); gpa += now; val += now; bytes -= now; } So i think it is safe to remove the splitting in read_emulated. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
