Revert "KVM: X86 emulator: fix source operand decoding for 8bit mov[zs]x instructions"
This reverts commit 5b5b30580218eae22609989546bac6e44d0eda6e, which was commit 660696d1d16a71e15549ce1bf74953be1592bcd3 upstream. Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> writes: [this patch] introduces the following: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c: In function ‘decode_operand’: arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:3974:4: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘decode_register’ makes integer from pointer +without a cast [enabled by default] arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:789:14: note: expected ‘u8’ but argument is of type ‘struct x86_emulate_ctxt *’ arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:3974:4: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘decode_register’ makes pointer from integer +without a cast [enabled by default] arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:789:14: note: expected ‘long unsigned int *’ but argument is of type ‘u8’ Based on the severity of the warnings above, I'm reasonably sure there will be some kind of runtime regressions due to this, but I stopped to investigate the warnings as soon as I saw them, before any run time testing. It happens because mainline v3.7-rc1~113^2~40 (dd856efafe60) does this: -static void *decode_register(u8 modrm_reg, unsigned long *regs, +static void *decode_register(struct x86_emulate_ctxt *ctxt, u8 modrm_reg, Since 660696d1d16a71e1 was only applied to stable 3.4, 3.8, and 3.9 -- and the prerequisite above is in 3.7+, the issue should be limited to 3.4.44+ Reported-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
