[PATCH 3/5] KVM: VMX: make rmode_segment_valid() more strict.

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

 



Currently it allows entering vm86 mode if segment limit is greater than
0xffff and db bit is set. Both of those can cause incorrect execution of
instruction by cpu since in vm86 mode limit will be set to 0xffff and db
will be forced to 0.
