RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] copy_from_user()
Copy_from_user itself has clear syntax, which is just fuse of some early
corrupted context. Suggestion is to:
- Dump symbol of your guest linux kernel, and locate the exact
instruction including type and register number
- Set breakpoint at that instruction and re-execute from scratch
- When br is hit, go through context save/restore path, to check
whether anything goes wrong in the boundary
- If everything works well on this emulation, you have to analyze guest
code and locate where the current register value comes from, and change br
again...
Also if you know exactly the place of internal data structure within HV related
to that point, monitoring that area can help more.
Just some vague idea and hope helps. :)
Thanks,
Kevin
