From ac04527f7947020c5890090b2ac87af4e98d977e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Avi Kivity Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2009 15:52:39 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Disable large pages on misaligned memory slots If a slots guest physical address and host virtual address unequal (mod large page size), then we would erronously try to back guest large pages with host large pages. Detect this misalignment and diable large page support for the trouble slot.
