Subject: [PATCH v3 01/19] accel/kvm: Add helper for handling conversions of MMIO holes
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2026 08:41:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261007134323.1606088-2-michael.roth@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261007134323.1606088-1-michael.roth@amd.com>

When converting GPA ranges containing MMIO holes, the general intended
logic is to skip MMIO ranges as long as it is a private->shared
conversion, and to fail otherwise.

To better enable some future refactorings to address bugs in the current
code, go ahead and consolidate all of the MMIO handling to a
self-contained helper.

The only intended functional change is that the error message for
shared->private conversion of MMIO ranges corresponding to a
non-RAM/non-ROM region now report the range of the region that
specifically caused the failure, as opposed to reporting the entire
conversion range. There is also a stray "," in the error message which
is fixed up as part of this refactoring.
