We should avoid the case that some buggy or malicious guest virtio driver gives us an invalid GPA(for example, GPA for some MMIO space) and crash our vhost process. As we discuss, you meet segfault here, but our virtio PMD shouldn't give us the GPA that has no translation, so we should root cause first and fix the problem, and then submit the patch checking all gpa_to_vva translation. -Huawei > /* Prefetch buffer address. */ > rte_prefetch0((void *)(uintptr_t)vb_addr); > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
