Subject: [PATCH v2 26/35] KVM: arm64: Return -EFAULT from VCPU_RUN on access to a poisoned pte
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2026 12:46:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260119124629.2563-27-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260119124629.2563-1-will@kernel.org>

If a protected vCPU faults on an IPA which appears to be mapped, query
the hypervisor to determine whether or not the faulting pte has been
poisoned by a forceful reclaim. If the pte has been poisoned, return
-EFAULT back to userspace rather than retrying the instruction forever.
