Subject: [PATCH 1/5] lguest: fix spurious BUG_ON() on invalid guest stack.
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2009 10:21:40 +1030 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200903271021.41091.rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (raw)
Impact: fix crash on misbehaving guest
gpte_addr() contains a BUG_ON(), insisting that the present flag is
set. We need to return before we call it if that isn't the case.
