Subject: [PATCH] KVM: MMU: Fix host memory corruption on i386 with >= 4GB ram
Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2007 12:07:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11736076282800-git-send-email-avi@qumranet.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <11736076283998-git-send-email-avi-atKUWr5tajBWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>
PAGE_MASK is an unsigned long, so using it to mask physical addresses on
i386 (which are 64-bit wide) leads to truncation. This can result in
page->private of unrelated memory pages being modified, with disasterous
results.
Fix by not using PAGE_MASK for physical addresses; instead calculate
the correct value directly from PAGE_SIZE. Also fix a similar BUG_ON().
