Subject: [PATCH 4/4] KVM: Remove write access permissions when dirty-page-logging is enabled
Date: Sun, 25 Feb 2007 12:58:07 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070225125807.2EDAF250196@il.qumranet.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <45E186FE.2000909@qumranet.com>

Enabling dirty page logging is done using KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl.
If the memory region already exists, we need to remove write accesses,
so writes will be caught, and dirty pages will be logged.
