@ -277,6 +277,9 @@ Handling a page fault is performed as follows:
- walk shadow page table
- cache the information to vcpu->arch.mmio_gva, vcpu->arch.access and
vcpu->arch.mmio_gfn, and call the emulator
- If both P bit and R/W bit of error code are set, this could possibly
be handled as a "fast page fault" (fixed without taking the MMU lock). See
the description in Documentation/virtual/kvm/locking.txt.
- if needed, walk the guest page tables to determine the guest translation
(gva->gpa or ngpa->gpa)
- if permissions are insufficient, reflect the fault back to the guest
