Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] KVM: SVM: Use "is AVIC-addressable" helper to sanity check load()/put()
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 08:51:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260923155108.1550622-3-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260923155108.1550622-1-seanjc@google.com>

Use avic_is_addressable_vcpu() instead of open coding a check on the bounds
of the allocated table for the sanity checks when loading/putting AVIC
state for a vCPU.  If KVM botches the allocation, then KVM will already
have performed an OOB write in avic_init_backing_page(), i.e. being super
paranoid in load()/put() doesn't provide meaningful protection in practice.
