[PATCH 3.17 126/319] KVM: x86: Decoding guest instructions which cross page boundary may fail

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

 



3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Nadav Amit <namit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 08da44aedba0f493e10695fa334348a7a4f72eb3 upstream.

Once an instruction crosses a page boundary, the size read from the second page
disregards the common case that part of the operand resides on the first page.
As a result, fetch of long insturctions may fail, and thereby cause the
decoding to fail as well.
