Actually, we get guest pte access after mark the dirty bit: if (write_fault && unlikely(!is_dirty_gpte(pte))) { int ret; trace_kvm_mmu_set_dirty_bit(table_gfn, index, sizeof(pte)); ret = FNAME(cmpxchg_gpte)(vcpu, mmu, ptep_user, index, pte, pte|PT_DIRTY_MASK); if (unlikely(ret < 0)) { present = false; goto error; } else if (ret) goto walk; mark_page_dirty(vcpu->kvm, table_gfn); pte |= PT_DIRTY_MASK; walker->ptes[walker->level - 1] = pte; } pte_access = pt_access & FNAME(gpte_access)(vcpu, pte, true); So, i think it works well :-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
