Subject: [Qemu-devel] Mapping of the guests user and kernel pages to host memory
Date: Sun, 16 Jun 2019 16:48:55 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <24d54a82-bbda-4edb-3ccb-d3144d2daac7@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,
I am interested in understanding on how QEMU maps the user and kernel
pages of a guest OS to the host OS memory (working on 3.1.0 but any 
version is acceptable with target x86-64 arch).
Since QEMU runs on user space, these pages will be also mapped on the 
user space of the host machine. So my question here is, where do the 
allocations take place, and in which place of the source code I could 
find the mapping.

Thank you for your time,
Dimitris
