Subject: [RFC 08/12] KVM/VMX: Use the new host mapping API for mapping nested PML
Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2018 19:47:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1517856451-2932-9-git-send-email-karahmed@amazon.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1517856451-2932-1-git-send-email-karahmed@amazon.de>
For nested guests the PML page was mapped to the host kernel using
kvm_vcpu_gpa_to_page which assumes that all guest memory is backed by a
"struct page". This breaks guests that have their memory outside the kernel
control.
Switch to the new host mapping API which takes care of this use-case as
well.
