But there are some HighMem pages in table->sgl can not get virtual address by sg_virt. So, sg_virt(sg_elem) may return NULL value. This will cause QEMU exit when virtqueue_map_sg is called in QEMU because an invalid GPA is passed by virtqueue. My solution is using sg_set_page instead of sg_set_buf. I have tested the patch on my workstation. QEMU would not crash any more.
