Kernel pages on x86 are protected by not having the _PAGE_USER bit set. When guest userspace accesses a kernel page, we didn't check this, so we'd think we'd handled the fault and return to the guest, causing the guest userspace program to loop instead of segfaulting.

If we're building a pte, we can use simple assigment; only use set_pte etc. when we're actually going to use that destination as a PTE. I don't know that we'll ever run under Xen, but it's neater. And use set_pte/set_pmd rather than assuming native_ versions, even though that's probably true for most people. (Includes compile fix by Kamalesh Babulal <kamalesh at

[Bug that was found by my previous patch] This patch allows things like modules, which don't have a direct __pa(EIP) mapping to do emulated instructions. Sure, the emulated instruction probably should be a paravirt_op, but this patch lets you at least boot a kernel that has modules needing emulated instructions.
