Now use bit 6 of EPTP to optionally enable A/D bits for EPTP. Another thing to change is that, when EPT accessed and dirty bits are not in use, VMX treats accesses to guest paging structures as data reads. When they are in use (bit 6 of EPTP is set), they are treated as writes and the corresponding EPT dirty bit is set. The MMU didn't know this detail, so this patch adds it. We also have to fix up the exit qualification. It may be wrong because KVM sets bit 6 but the guest might not. L1 emulates EPT A/D bits using write permissions, so in principle it may be possible for EPT A/D bits to be used by L1 even though not available in hardware. The problem is that guest page-table walks will be treated as reads rather than writes, so they would not cause an EPT violation.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
