Subject: [PATCH 01/13] KVM: arm64: Hide CNTHV_*_EL2 from userspace for nVHE guests
Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2025 17:04:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250929160458.3351788-2-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250929160458.3351788-1-maz@kernel.org>
Although we correctly UNDEF any CNTHV_*_EL2 access from the guest
when E2H==0, we still expose these registers to userspace, which
is a bad idea.
Drop the ad-hoc UNDEF injection and switch to a .visibility()
callback which will also hide the register from userspace.
Fixes: 0e45981028550 ("KVM: arm64: timer: Don't adjust the EL2 virtual timer offset")
