Subject: [PATCH 0/2] riscv: ptdump: Refactor for KVM gstage ptdump support
Date: Wed,  1 Jul 2026 04:50:28 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701085030.124579-1-fredwudi0305@gmail.com> (raw)

This series refactors the RISC-V ptdump implementation to support
dumping KVM gstage (stage-2) page tables via debugfs.

Patch 1 moves the pagetable walking state and level definitions to a
common header (arch/riscv/include/asm/ptdump.h), updates the attribute
parsing logic to use per-level bit definitions, and exports note_page()
so that it can be reused by the KVM ptdump implementation.

Patch 2 introduces KVM gstage ptdump support, registering a
'gstage_page_tables' file under the guest debugfs directory. This
allows userspace to inspect the gstage layout and permissions, which
is useful for architectural debugging and memory management audits.

Testing:
  - Booted on QEMU riscv64 with CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS=y and
    CONFIG_PTDUMP_GSTAGE_DEBUGFS=y
  - Verified /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables output unchanged
  - Created a KVM guest and verified gstage_page_tables output:
