The QEMU accesses Guest Video RAM (or any portion of Guest RAM) as cacheable user space memory. The Guest Kernel might access Guest Video RAM as non-cacheable to maintain coherency with video device. If this is the case then all updates by Guest kernel to Guest Video RAM will not be visible to QEMU. -- Anup > > Jan > _______________________________________________ > kvmarm mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
