摘要
An example method of scanning a guest virtual address (GVA) space generated by a guest operating system executing in a virtual machine of a virtualized computing system includes setting, in a scan of the GVA space by a hypervisor that manages the virtual machine, a current GVA to a first GVA in the GVA space; executing, on a processor allocated to the virtual machine, an address translation instruction, which is in an instruction set of the processor, to perform a first address translation of the current GVA; reading a register of the processor to determine a first error resulting from the first address translation; determining, in response to the first error, a level of a faulting page table in a first page table hierarchy generated by the guest operating system; and setting the current GVA to a second GVA based on the level of the faulting page table.
