Subject: [PATCH v2 00/35] KVM: arm64: Add support for protected guest memory with pKVM
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2026 12:45:53 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260119124629.2563-1-will@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi folks,
It's back and it's even bigger than before!
Although the first patch has been picked up as a fix (thanks, Oliver),
review feedback has resulted in some additional patches being included
in the series. If you'd like to see the first version, it's available
here:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvmarm/20260105154939.11041-1-will@kernel.org/
Changes since v1 include:
* Change hypercall order so that pKVM-specific calls are in their own
range
* Make 'pkvm_handle_t' a u16 and check its size at compile-time
* Rework pte annotations to take a 4-bit type field
* Fix a memory leak on the kvm_arch_init_vm() failure path
* Pass KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_IGNORE_EAGAIN when mapping into the host idmap
* Avoid host annotation when reclaiming guest pages
* Re-instate guest pte metadata when unsharing a page
* Extend selftests to cover guest share and unshare hypercalls
* Drop broken MMU notifier changes
* Documentation tweaks
As before, patches are based on v6.19-rc4 and are also available at:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git/log/?h=kvm/protected-memory
All feedback welcome.
Cheers,
Will
