Jason, do you want to send a V2 with your Signed-off, or would you like me to
try upstreaming the patch?

Hi Jürgen,

Yes, please upstream your approach.  I wasn't sure how to deal with
it, so it was more of a bug report.

The final solution was a bit more complicated, as there are some
corner cases to be considered. OTOH it is now complete by looking
at all used translation entries.

Are you able to test the attached patch? I don't see the original
issue and can only verify the patch doesn't cause any regression.


Juergen

Hi Jürgen,

I gave a try to the patch in this email with osstest, and I can't find a
single "CPA detected W^X violation" log entry, when there's seems to be
many in osstest in general, from dom0 it seems as it's on the host
serial console usually.

http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/185252/

If you look in several "serial-$host.log*" files, there will be the
"CPA detected" message, but they happen on previous test run.

I did an other smaller run before this one, and same thing:
http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/185186/

And this other run as well, which I failed to setup properly with lots
of broken, but no failure due to the patch and I can't find any "CPA
detected" messages.
http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/185248/

I hope that helps?

Yes, it does. Thanks for testing.


Juergen
