Subject: [PATCH v6 17/18] KVM: arm64: Reject hyp trace descriptors with fewer than 3 pages
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2026 15:28:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261001142849.3367614-18-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261001142849.3367614-1-vdonnefort@google.com>
A trace descriptor with 0 nr_page_va allocates a 0-size bpages
backing region, which makes the ring buffer appear unloaded. Reject
descriptors with nr_page_va < 3 in hyp_trace_desc_is_valid() as this is
in any case the lower-limit for simple_ring_buffer.
