KVM: x86: drop alignment checks from KVM_MSR_SYSTEM_TIME address

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

 



The alignment check is not necessary given that "KVM: x86: Convert
MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME to use gfn_to_hva_cache" (0b79459b482e85cb742) 
uses kvm_write_guest which is able to handle data across page
properly.
