Hello folks,
So from the documentation for HGCM -
A request is constructed in the guest physical memory, which must be locked
by the guest. The physical address is passed to the VMM device
using a 32 bit out edx, eax instruction.
Can someone elaborate as to where in the code I can find as to how the
physical address is passed to the VMM device ? Also how is the guest
physical memory mapped to be accessed by the host ?
I looked around in the HGCM files in the both Additions/common/VBoxGuest*
and in Devices/VMMDev but I was just going around in circles.
Any pointers would be really appreciated.
Thanks
