Subject: [PATCH v3 04/16] KVM: selftests: Kill eptPageTablePointer
Date: Thu, 27 Nov 2025 01:34:28 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251127013440.3324671-5-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251127013440.3324671-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev>
Replace the struct overlay with explicit bitmasks, which is clearer and
less error-prone. See commit f18b4aebe107 ("kvm: selftests: do not use
bitfields larger than 32-bits for PTEs") for an example of why bitfields
are not preferrable.
Remove the unused PAGE_SHIFT_4K definition while at it.
No functional change intended.
