Subject: [PATCH 2/3] kvm: add SPTE_HOST_WRITEABLE flag to the shadow ptes.
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2009 03:00:03 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1238457604-7637-3-git-send-email-ieidus@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1238457604-7637-2-git-send-email-ieidus@redhat.com>

this flag notify that the host physical page we are pointing to from
the spte is write protected, and therefore we cant change its access
to be write unless we run get_user_pages(write = 1).

(this is needed for change_pte support in kvm)
