Subject: [PATCH v2 17/22] KVM: arm64: Introduce kvm_pgtable_stage2_table_install()
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 14:50:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911135053.146435-18-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911135053.146435-1-vdonnefort@google.com>

The existing kvm_pgtable_stage2_split() is unfit for pKVM: it relies on
kvm_mmu_memory_cache which pKVM doesn't use and has no easy way to
handle pKVM-specific annotations.

Add the pgtable helper kvm_pgtable_stage2_table_install() so pKVM can
handle block splitting in mem_protect.c. That helper can take a table
either populated with kvm_pgtable_stage2_create_unlinked() or one filled
with annotations.
