Subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] KVM: VMX: Atomically switch efer if EPT && !EFER.NX
Date: Sun, 2 May 2010 12:48:54 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272793734-455-6-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1272793734-455-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>
When EPT is enabled, we cannot emulate EFER.NX=0 through the shadow page
tables. This causes accesses through ptes with bit 63 set to succeed instead
of failing a reserved bit check.
