Subject: [BUGFIX][PATCH 0/4] gdbsx: fix 3 bugs
Date: Sat,  4 Jan 2014 12:52:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1388857936-664-1-git-send-email-dslutz@verizon.com> (raw)

Release manager requests:
  patch 1 should be in 4.4.0
  patch 3 and 4 would be good to be in 4.4.0
  patch 2 is optional.

While tracking down a bug in seabios/grub I found the bug in patch
1.

There are 2 ways that gfn will not be INVALID_GFN and yet mfn will
be INVALID_MFN.

  1) p2m_is_readonly(gfntype) and writing memory.
  2) the requested vaddr does not exist.

This may only be an issue for a HVM guest that is in real mode
(I.E. no page tables).

Patch 2 is debug logging that was used to find the 2nd way.

Patch 3 and 4 are more of a cleanup bug fix.

Don Slutz (4):
  dbg_rw_guest_mem: need to call put_gfn in error path.
  dbg_rw_guest_mem: Enable debug log output
  xg_read_mem: Report on error.
  XEN_DOMCTL_gdbsx_guestmemio: always do the copyback.
