Guest access functions like copy_to/from_guest() call __guestaddr_to_user() which in turn call gmap_fault() in order to translate a guest address to a user space address. In error case __guest_addr_to_user() returns either -EFAULT or -ENOMEM. The copy_to/from_guest functions just pass these return values down to the callers. The -ENOMEM case however is problematic since there are several places which access guest memory like: rc = copy_to_guest(...); if (rc == -EFAULT) error_handling(); So in case of -ENOMEM the code assumes that the guest memory access succeeded even though it failed. This can cause guest data or state corruption. If __guestaddr_to_user() returns -ENOMEM the meaning is that a valid user space mapping exists, but there was not enough memory available when trying to build the guest mapping. In other words an out-of-memory situation occured. For normal user space accesses an out-of-memory situation causes the page fault handler to map -ENOMEM to -EFAULT (see fixup code in do_no_context()). We need to do exactly the same for the kvm gaccess functions. So __guestaddr_to_user() should just map all error codes to -EFAULT.
