[PATCH 2.6.32 25/62] lguest: fix out-by-one error in address checking.

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

 



2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 83a35114d0e4583e6b0ca39502e68b6a92e2910c upstream.

This bug has been there since day 1; addresses in the top guest physical
page weren't considered valid.  You could map that page (the check in
check_gpte() is correct), but if a guest tried to put a pagetable there
we'd check that address manually when walking it, and kill the guest.
