Hi there,

I am running an adapted version of tools/tests/xen_access/xen_access.c  to get 
and respond to memory events to do some analysis.  Anyways, after registering 
for and receiving single stepping events in my ring buffer where the 
me_event_request_t's  reason field == MEM_EVENT_REASON_SINGLESTEP, I sometimes 
see that the gfn in the request is -1.

the guest is HVM windows 32 bit.  For 99.99% of the single step traps the 
req.gfn value is the correct guest frame number value, but every now and again 
I get a -1

Does anyone know why this could happen?  

Thanks,
-Bob
