Hi Avi, In the kvm/next branch, sparse warns about arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:232 writeback_registers() error: buffer overflow 'ctxt->_regs' 9 <= 15 This is because the array definition is ctxt._regs[NR_VCPU_REGS] where NR_VCPU_REGS=9 for i386 and 17 for x86_64. It could be fixed by changing the hard coded 16 to (NR_VCPU_REGS-1). And I wonder whether you actually want NR_VCPU_REGS here?
