[PATCH 3/9] KVM: x86: Loading segments on 64-bit mode may be wrong

From: Nadav Amit
Date: Mon Jun 02 2014 - 11:37:48 EST


The current emulator implementation ignores the high 32 bits of the base in
long-mode. During segment load from the LDT, the base of the LDT is calculated
incorrectly and may cause the wrong segment to be loaded.
