Subject: [PATCH v4 17/21] KVM: selftests: Set the user bit on nested NPT PTEs
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2025 15:01:46 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251230230150.4150236-18-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251230230150.4150236-1-seanjc@google.com>
From: Yosry Ahmed <yosry.ahmed@linux.dev>
According to the APM, NPT walks are treated as user accesses. In
preparation for supporting NPT mappings, set the 'user' bit on NPTs by
adding a mask of bits to always be set on PTEs in kvm_mmu.
