Subject: [PATCH 01/14] KVM: arm64: Donate MMIO to the hypervisor
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 12:49:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260310124933.830025-2-sebastianene@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260310124933.830025-1-sebastianene@google.com>

From: Mostafa Saleh <smostafa@google.com>

Add a function to donate MMIO to the hypervisor so IOMMU hypervisor
drivers can use that to protect the MMIO of IOMMU.
The initial attempt to implement this was to have a new flag to
"___pkvm_host_donate_hyp" to accept MMIO. However that had many problems,
it was quite intrusive for host/hyp to check/set page state to make it
aware of MMIO and to encode the state in the page table in that case.
Which is called in paths that can be sensitive to performance (FFA, VMs..)

As donating MMIO is very rare, and we don’t need to encode the full
state, it’s reasonable to have a separate function to do this.
It will init the host s2 page table with an invalid leaf with the owner ID
to prevent the host from mapping the page on faults.

Also, prevent kvm_pgtable_stage2_unmap() from removing owner ID from
stage-2 PTEs, as this can be triggered from recycle logic under memory
pressure. There is no code relying on this, as all ownership changes is
done via kvm_pgtable_stage2_set_owner()

For error path in IOMMU drivers, add a function to donate MMIO back
from hyp to host.
