Subject: KVM: x86: ignore access permissions for hypercall patching
Date: Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:16:05 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100311211605.GA20718@amt.cnet> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4B956283.10706@canonical.com>


Ignore access permissions while patching hypercall instructions. 
Otherwise KVM injects a page fault when trying to patch vmcall 
on read-only text regions:

Freeing initrd memory: 8843k freed
Freeing unused kernel memory: 660k freed
Write protecting the kernel text: 4780k
Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 1912k
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at c01292e3
IP: [<c01292e3>] kvm_leave_lazy_mmu+0x43/0x70
*pde = 00910067 *pte = 00129161
Oops: 0003 [#1] SMP
