Subject: [PATCH] KVM: arm64: Sanitise host vCPU fields in flush_hyp_vcpu()
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2026 20:18:16 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aiFe-CXo-XVTFz1g@v4bel> (raw)
flush_hyp_vcpu() copies the host vCPU context and vGIC state into the
hyp's private vCPU on every run. ctxt_to_vcpu() expects a guest context
to have a NULL __hyp_running_vcpu, which is only ever set on the host
context, so that it resolves the vCPU via container_of(). The vGIC list
register save and restore expect used_lrs to stay within the number of
implemented list registers. While this is generally the case,
flush_hyp_vcpu() copies both fields verbatim from the host vCPU and
enforces neither expectation.
Fix by clearing __hyp_running_vcpu and clamping used_lrs after the copy.
Fixes: be66e67f1750 ("KVM: arm64: Use the pKVM hyp vCPU structure in handle___kvm_vcpu_run()")
