Subject: [PATCH v2 7/8] KVM: MMU: Validate all gptes during fetch, not just those used for new pages
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 14:30:53 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1278934254-5598-8-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1278934254-5598-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>

Currently, when we fetch an spte, we only verify that gptes match those that
the walker saw if we build new shadow pages for them.

However, this misses the following race:

  vcpu1            vcpu2

  walk
                  change gpte
                  walk
                  instantiate sp

  fetch existing sp

Fix by validating every gpte, regardless of whether it is used for building
a new sp or not.
