Subject: [PATCH v18 20/23] KVM: arm64: CCA: Don't expose unsupported capabilities for realm guests
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 17:01:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915160141.3543048-21-suzuki.poulose@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260915160141.3543048-1-suzuki.poulose@arm.com>
Limit the capabilities that are allowed for Realm VMs. Similarly block
the vm_ioctls backed by the capabilities.
Repurpose the kvm_pkvm_ioctl_allowed() to support both pKVM and Realm
ioctls. Rename the helper to kvm_arch_vm_ioctl_allowed() and move it
into arch/arm64/kvm/arm.c. Also add a generic kvm_arch_vm_ext_allowed()
to handle pKVM and Realm capability filtering.
Signed-off-by: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com>

Changes since v17:
* Drop superfluous !kvm check from kvm_vm_ioctl_enable_cap() - Sashiko
* Drop KVM_CAP_CREATE_IRQCHIP, as we don't support VGIC_V2 for Realms
* Filter out the vm_ioctls that are based on blocked cap.
* Repurpose the pkvm plumbing for filtering the caps and ioctl to generic
and plumb the Realm support in
Changes since v13:
* Add missing check in kvm_vm_ioctl_enable_cap().
Changes since v10:
* Add a kvm_realm_ext_allowed() function which limits which extensions
are exposed to an allowlist. This removes the need for special casing
various extensions.
Changes since v7:
* Remove the helper functions and inline the kvm_is_realm() check with
a ternary operator.
* Rewrite the commit message to explain this patch.
