Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/xen: fix pv boot
Date: Wed,  7 Nov 2018 18:01:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181107170100.9435-1-jgross@suse.com> (raw)

Commit 9da3f2b7405440 ("x86/fault: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on
kernel addresses") introduced a regression for booting Xen PV guests.

Xen PV guests are using __put_user() and __get_user() for accessing the
p2m map (physical to machine frame number map) as accesses might fail
in case of not populated areas of the map.

With above commit using __put_user() and __get_user() for accessing
kernel pages is no longer valid. So replace the Xen hack by adding
appropriate p2m access functions using the default fixup handler.

Fixes: 9da3f2b7405440 ("x86/fault: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on kernel addresses")
