That leads to guest kernel crashes with injection of page faults 9 (see oops: 0009) as bits above 40 in the guest pagetables are considered reserved. exregion-0206 [324572448] [17] ex_system_memory_space: System-Memory (width 32) R/W 0 Address=00000000FED00000 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc9006030e000 IP: [] acpi_ex_system_memory_space_handler+0x23e/0x2cb PGD e01f875067 PUD 1001f075067 PMD e0178d8067 PTE 80000000fed00173 Oops: 0009 [#1] SMP (see PUD with bit >=40 set) Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli Reported-by: Chegu Vinod --- target-i386/cpu.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/target-i386/cpu.c b/target-i386/cpu.c index e3f75a8..0e65673 100644 --- a/target-i386/cpu.c +++ b/target-i386/cpu.c @@ -2108,6 +2108,12 @@ void cpu_x86_cpuid(CPUX86State *env, uint32_t index, uint32_t count, /* 64 bit processor */ /* XXX: The physical address space is limited to 42 bits in exec.c. */ *eax = 0x00003028; /* 48 bits virtual, 40 bits physical */ + if (kvm_enabled()) { + uint32_t _eax; + host_cpuid(0x80000000, 0, &_eax, NULL, NULL, NULL); + if (_eax >= 0x80000008) + host_cpuid(0x80000008, 0, eax, NULL, NULL, NULL); + } } else { if (env->features[FEAT_1_EDX] & CPUID_PSE36) { *eax = 0x00000024; /* 36 bits physical */
