Right now the error code is not used when an async page fault is completed. This is not a problem in the current code, but it is untidy. For protected VMs, we will also need to check that the page attributes match the current state of the page, because asynchronous page faults can only occur on shared pages (private pages go through kvm_faultin_pfn_private() instead of __gfn_to_pfn_memslot()). Start by piping the error code from kvm_arch_setup_async_pf() to kvm_arch_async_page_ready() via the architecture-specific async page fault data. For now, it can be used to assert that there are no async page faults on private memory. Extracted from a patch by Isaku Yamahata. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
