Subject: [PATCH v3] KVM: arm64: Trap guest MPAM accesses whenever MPAM is implemented
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 11:47:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911104715.307500-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
finalise_el2_state() clears the EL2 MPAM traps whenever the ID
registers advertise MPAM, while KVM sets them only under ARM64_MPAM,
which also requires MPAMEN. Without EL3 nothing sets that enable, so a
guest reaches the MPAM registers while ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.MPAM reads 0
for it.
Gate on what finalise_el2_state() tests instead: this CPU's ID
registers with the arm64.nompam override applied, and its
MPAMIDR_EL1.HAS_HCR before writing MPAMHCR_EL2, which is UNDEFINED
without it. MPAMEN isn't a term in any MPAM accessor, so the traps
take effect without it.
Fixes: 31ff96c38ea3 ("KVM: arm64: Fix missing traps of guest accesses to the MPAM registers")
Signed-off-by: Fuad Tabba <fuad.tabba@linux.dev>

Notes:
Changes since v2:
- A per-CPU flag in kvm_host_data, set at KVM's CPU init from the ID
registers with the override applied, instead of a third cpucap
(Will). The probe checks presence only, since MPAM3_EL3.TRAPLOWER
can't be read at EL2.
- The MPAMHCR_EL2 branch reads this CPU's MPAMIDR_EL1 rather than the
sanitised ARM64_MPAM_HCR, which would otherwise have been the one
system-wide test left in a per-CPU function.
- Fixes: names the KVM commit that left this case open, rather than
the head.S commit that cleared the traps.
- Yuan's Reviewed-by dropped, since the mechanism changed.
