SMAP is disabled if CPU is in non-paging mode in hardware.
However KVM always uses paging mode to emulate guest non-paging
mode with TDP. To emulate this behavior, SMAP needs to be
manually disabled when guest switches to non-paging mode.

Supervisor Mode Access Prevention (SMAP) is a new security feature
disclosed by Intel, please refer to the following document:
http://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/319433-014.pdf
Every access to a linear address is either a supervisor-mode access
or a user-mode access. All accesses

You are overwriting this variable below, but that is not okay because
the value of CR4 must be considered separately in each iteration. This
also hides a uninitialized-variable bug for smap correctly in

The goal of this spec is to allow suitably-built OS images to run on

Recommendations in this spec are valid for aarch32 and aarch64 alike, and

I am running into performance issues with Windows guest VM's in
conjunction with the rather old version of Qemu-KVM that is currently
being shipped with rhel 6.4 and as such I am looking to upgrade to the
latest stable release of qemu (v1.7.1 if I am not mistaken).
