Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: Write the per-page "segment" when clearing (part of) a guest page
Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2024 12:14:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240829191413.900740-2-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240829191413.900740-1-seanjc@google.com>

Pass "seg" instead of "len" when writing guest memory in kvm_clear_guest(),
as "seg" holds the number of bytes to write for the current page, while
"len" holds the total bytes remaining.

Luckily, all users of kvm_clear_guest() are guaranteed to not cross a page
boundary, and so the bug is unhittable in the current code base.

Fixes: 2f5414423ef5 ("KVM: remove kvm_clear_guest_page")
Reported-by: zyr_ms@outlook.com
Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219104
