Subject: [PATCH v2 17/30] KVM: arm64: Replace fault_is_perm with a helper
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2026 11:36:05 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260327113618.4051534-18-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260327113618.4051534-1-maz@kernel.org>
Carrying a boolean to indicate that a given fault is a permission fault
is slightly odd, as this is a property of the fault itself, and we'd
better avoid duplicating state.
For this purpose, introduce a kvm_s2_fault_is_perm() predicate that
can take a fault descriptor as a parameter. fault_is_perm is therefore
dropped from kvm_s2_fault.
