Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] KVM: arm64: nv: Even more VNCR fixes
Date: Tue, 9 Jun 2026 11:51:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260609185204.745929-4-oupton@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260609185204.745929-1-oupton@kernel.org>
Yes, even more.
On top of the first pile:
- KVM needs to fault in the PFN for write before mapping the L1 VNCR
with write permissions in the host stage-1
- Hack to prevent KVM from mapping a non-memory PFN with cacheable
mappings. This doesn't align perfectly with the semantics at stage-2,
boo hoo.
- Bonus change to break VNCR abort loops in case by bugging the VM if
KVM doesn't know how to handle the fault
Tested by running an L3 VM with kvmarm/next
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvmarm/20260608161446.718957-1-oupton@kernel.org/
Oliver Upton (5):
KVM: arm64: nv: Respect read-only PFN when mapping L1 VNCR
KVM: arm64: nv: Inject SEA if kvm_translate_vncr() can't resolve PFN
KVM: arm64: nv: Re-translate VNCR before injecting abort
KVM: arm64: nv: Inject SEA if guest VNCR isn't normal memory
KVM: arm64: nv: Mark VM as bugged for unexpected VNCR abort
