Subject: [PATCH v3 28/36] KVM: arm64: Implement the MEM_SHARE hypercall for protected VMs
Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2026 14:43:41 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260305144351.17071-29-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260305144351.17071-1-will@kernel.org>
Implement the ARM_SMCCC_KVM_FUNC_MEM_SHARE hypercall to allow protected
VMs to share memory (e.g. the swiotlb bounce buffers) back to the host.
Reviewed-by: Vincent Donnefort <vdonnefort@google.com>
