hello everyone,

I'm trying to access guest memory from the host machine (x86_64).
In particular I would like to be able to find
the "physical" memory addresses the host machine allocates for the guest vm.
Is there any function in KVM that allows me to do that?
Could any of you please help me clarify the subject
or point me to some detailed documentation?

There is no direct mapping between guest physical addresses to host physical addresses. kvm allocates memory on demand (when the guest first accesses it), so when a VM is started no memory is allocated to it. Further, kvm can swap guest memory, so the host address can disappear or move.

What are you trying to accomplish?
