Subject: [PATCH v3 2/5] x86/pvh: Use correct size value in GDT descriptor
Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2024 18:04:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241009160438.3884381-9-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241009160438.3884381-7-ardb+git@google.com>
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
The limit field in a GDT descriptor is an inclusive bound, and therefore
one less than the size of the covered range.
