Subject: [PATCH v2 4/5] KVM: arm64: Omit tag sync on stage-2 mappings of the zero page
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2026 17:11:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604151151.150377-11-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604151151.150377-7-ardb+git@google.com>
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
Commit
f620d66af316 ("arm64: mte: Do not flag the zero page as PG_mte_tagged")
removed the PG_mte_tagged flag from the zero page, but missed a KVM code
path that may set this flag on the zero page when it is used in a
stage-2 CoW mapping of anonymous memory.
So disregard the zero page explicitly in sanitise_mte_tags().
Fixes: f620d66af316 ("arm64: mte: Do not flag the zero page as PG_mte_tagged")
