Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Introduce segmented addresses to the emulator
Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2010 15:28:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1290000502-28669-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
Currently we lose segment information associated with memory operands. This
prevents us from doing proper segment checks.
This patchset prepares the way by remembering which segment is associated
with a memory operand.
Avi Kivity (2):
KVM: x86 emulator: preserve an operand's segment identity
v2: truncate linear address to 32 bits if not in long mode (thanks Gleb)
KVM: x86 emulator: do not perform address calculations on linear
addresses
v2: fix typo
