Subject: [PATCH v1 12/13] KVM: arm64: Hoist MTE validation check out of MMU lock path
Date: Fri,  6 Mar 2026 14:02:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260306140232.2193802-13-tabba@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260306140232.2193802-1-tabba@google.com>

Simplify the non-cacheable attributes assignment by using a ternary
operator. Additionally, hoist the MTE validation check (mte_allowed) out
of kvm_s2_fault_map() and into kvm_s2_fault_compute_prot(). This allows
us to fail faster and avoid acquiring the KVM MMU lock unnecessarily
when the VMM introduces a disallowed VMA for an MTE-enabled guest.
