Subject: [PATCH v4 00/21] KVM: selftests: Add Nested NPT support
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2025 15:01:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251230230150.4150236-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

Yosry's series to add support for nested NPT, and extends vmx_dirty_log_test
and kvm_dirty_log_test (with -n, using memstress) to cover nested SVM.

Note, I'm mildly concerned the last patch to extend nested_dirty_log_test to
validate KVM's handling of READ faults could be flaky, e.g. maybe if someone
is running the test under heavy memory pressure and the to-be-access page is
swapped between the write-from-host and read-from-guest?  But unless someone
knows/shows it'll be flaky, I'm inclined to apply it and hope for the best.

v4:
 - Document the likely reason for setting A/D bits.
 - Put "mmu" structure in common "struct kvm".
 - Make it clear PTE accessors are predicates.
 - Assert that the stage-2 MMU is initialized at most once.
 - Make READABLE a standalone bit (don't overload USER).
 - Don't alias PRESENT => READABLE for EPT.
 - Fix the A/D bit definitions for EPT.
 - Drop the function comment for __tdp_map().
 - Add a patch to extend the nested_dirty_log_test to verify that KVM creates
   writable SPTEs when the gPTEs are writable and dirty.

v3:
 - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251127013440.3324671-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev
 - Dropped the patches that landed in kvm-x86.
 - Reshuffled some patches and cleanups.
 - Introduced kvm_mmu data structures to hold the root, page table
   levels, and page table masks (Sean).
 - Extended memstress as well to cover nested SVM.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20251021074736.1324328-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev
