Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Avoid mixing gpa_t with gfn_t in walk_addr_generic()
Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2020 17:14:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200622151435.752560-1-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)
translate_gpa() returns a GPA, assigning it to 'real_gfn' seems obviously
wrong. There is no real issue because both 'gpa_t' and 'gfn_t' are u64 and
we don't use the value in 'real_gfn' as a GFN, we do
real_gfn = gpa_to_gfn(real_gfn);
instead. 'If you see a "buffalo" sign on an elephant's cage, do not trust
your eyes', but let's fix it for good.
No functional change intended.
