Subject: [PATCH v3 3/6] KVM: arm64: Ignore HCR_EL2.FIEN set by L1 guest's EL2
Date: Sun, 17 Aug 2025 21:21:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250817202158.395078-4-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250817202158.395078-1-maz@kernel.org>
An EL2 guest can set HCR_EL2.FIEN, which gives access to the RASv1p1
fault injection mechanism. This would allow an EL1 guest to inject
error records into the system, which does sound like a terrible idea.
Prevent this situation by added FIEN to the list of bits we silently
exclude from being inserted into the host configuration.
