[Xen-ia64-devel] Mapping invalid address

[Tristan Gingold <Tristan.Gingold@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

when domU tries to map an bad mpa, it maps page 0 instead.

This is how vcpu_itc_d works:
        pteval = translate_domain_pte(pte,ifa,itir);
        if (!pteval) return IA64_ILLOP_FAULT;

Because translate_domain_pte end is:
        pteval2 = lookup_domain_mpa(d,mpaddr);
        pteval2 &= _PAGE_PPN_MASK; // ignore non-addr bits
        pteval2 |= _PAGE_PL_2; // force PL0->2 (PL3 is unaffected)
        pteval2 = (pteval & ~_PAGE_PPN_MASK) | pteval2;
        return pteval2;
}

Therefore, translate_domain_pte never returns 0.

it is expected, or should we fix this behavior ?

Tristan.
