Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: arm64: Return -EINVAL for an empty SMCCC filter range at base 0
Date: Sat, 29 Aug 2026 07:48:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260829054856.70549-2-kmehltretter@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260829054856.70549-1-kmehltretter@gmail.com>

kvm_smccc_set_filter() only rejects a range if its inclusive end,
base + nr_functions - 1, is below base. That catches an empty range
(nr_functions == 0) at every nonzero base, but at base 0 the end wraps
to U32_MAX and KVM tries to insert [0, U32_MAX], which overlaps the
reserved Arm Architecture Calls ranges. KVM_ARM_VM_SMCCC_FILTER then
returns -EEXIST instead of the -EINVAL that the smccc_filter selftest
expects for an empty range.

Reject a zero function count explicitly.

Tested with a userspace reproducer on an arm64 VHE host under QEMU TCG:
EEXIST before, EINVAL after.

Fixes: 821d935c87bc ("KVM: arm64: Introduce support for userspace SMCCC filtering")
