Rather than assert that the first byte of a checked range is within the
guest address space, assert that the last byte is. The assertion is
moved past the overflow check to ensure that the last byte is actually
the one with the highest address.

You've moved the assert past some returns, so that some cases that should not be handled by this function no longer get checked. As the comment says, the address should already have been filtered by h2g_valid. r~

As far as I can tell, the following code assumes that the entire range of checked addresses falls within the guest address range. So it makes sense to fail the assertion if the any byte is out of range, rather than only the first one. > You've moved the assert past some returns, so that some cases that should > not be handled by this function no longer get checked.

I find it generally hard to argue what an assertion should or should not do insofar as an assertion failure is supposed to be impossible. I am not in a position to decide if the assertion should fail in error cases that would be handled properly with a safe failure anyway - namely 0 bytes ranges and wrapping-around ranges. However, it seems odd to live some undefined cases not failing the assertion, and I would not dare to add an extra assertion, so I replaced the one. -- Rémi Denis-Courmont http://www.remlab.net/

But that would call for adding a second assert, rather than removing one from some paths. Which you say you "would not dare", which is confusing to me. Is there a particular problem you are attempting to solve, or is this mere code inspection? r~
