You're papering over the fundamental issue that you're accessing a cacheable alias of a non cacheable memory. The architecture is very clear about why this doesn't work, and KVM implements the architecture. If you want this to work, map your VGA device as cacheable, add cache maintenance to QEMU, or use another frame-buffer emulation that doesn't require such a gack. Thanks, M.

For emulation devices just like vga, keeping coherent dcache between guest and host timely is needed. Now the display of vnc-viewer will not update continuously and the patch can fix up.
