Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] The `handle_mvpg_pei` function incorrectly leaks positive program exception codes (e.g., PGM_ADDRESSING) to userspace through the KVM_RUN ioctl, instead of injecting them into the guest.

KVM: s390: Return -EINTR if a signal was pending while faulting-in

If a signal is pending while trying to fault-in a page, return -EINTR
instead of -EAGAIN.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this leak positive program exception
codes to userspace instead of injecting them into the guest?

If a guest executes an MVPG instruction with an unmapped guest address,
kvm_s390_faultin_gfn_simple() can return PGM_ADDRESSING (which is 5).

Because this positive value is returned directly instead of passing it
through kvm_s390_inject_prog_cond(), it appears to propagate all the way up
to the KVM_RUN ioctl return.

Userspace VMMs like QEMU might not update run->exit_reason on a positive
return code, potentially leading to stale exit reasons and state corruption,
and the guest is denied the architectural program exception it is owed.

Should this be wrapped in kvm_s390_inject_prog_cond(vcpu, rc) instead?

>  
> -	return 0;
> +	return rc;

[Severity: High]
This is also a pre-existing issue for the same reason. Does the destination
fault-in need the same kvm_s390_inject_prog_cond() wrapper to prevent
positive program exception codes from leaking to userspace?
