Subject: [PATCH 00/16] KVM: arm64: selftests: Tests for protected VMs
Date: Wed, 4 Nov 2026 08:48:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104084842.132944-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
Hi folks,
This series adds selftests for protected VMs. A test skips on a host
without pKVM, and so does any case where the host doesn't have the
required feature, e.g., PtrAuth, SVE or hugetlb pages.
A couple of points:
- Each area gets its own test rather than cases folded into existing
tests such as psci_test, hypercalls, set_id_regs, etc. A protected
guest requires its own boot path, and has to share the ucall pool
before its first ucall. On top of that, a protected guest gets the
opposite result for many of those tests' checks.
- pkvm_exceptions skips its breakpoint, watchpoint and single-step cases
while a protected guest's ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.DebugVer is 0. pkvm_id_regs
reads the same field to choose between the hidden and the exposed
debug view. With the patch that adds self-hosted debug to protected
guests [1], both tests run the debug cases with no change.
The series is structured as follows:
01: external_aborts: an abort injected before a vCPU's first run.
02-04: Generic selftest changes: creating a protected VM, the pKVM
function IDs and the ucall pool's address.
05-06: Protected-VM library: boot trampoline and helpers.
07-16: The tests, one per area.
Based on Linux 7.4-rc1 (6628e7d4c6b25).
Cheers,
/fuad
