Subject: [PATCH v11 15/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Call arch make_shared callback for to-shared conversion
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 09:18:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826-gmem-inplace-conversion-v11-15-0a15d8a799aa@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826-gmem-inplace-conversion-v11-0-0a15d8a799aa@google.com>

When memory in guest_memfd is converted from private to shared, the
platform-specific state associated with the guest-private pages must be
invalidated or cleaned up.

Iterate over the folios in the affected range and call the
kvm_arch_gmem_make_shared() hook for each PFN range. This allows
architectures to update hardware metadata or encryption states to
transition pages to the shared state.

Invoke this helper after indicating to KVM's mmu code that an invalidation
is in progress to stop in-flight page faults from succeeding. Calling the
invalidation helper also calls the arch invalidate hook. For SNP, this
kicks any vCPU with a registered VMSA within the range being converted out
of the guest. This ensures that make_shared never fails due to the VMSA
page being in-use and is important because if make_shared fails, the RMP
table would track the page as private while guest_memfd is unaware and
tracks the page as shared.

Omit support for calling the arch hook to make private, since SNP, the only
implementer of the arch make-private hook today, would actually prefer
making private only just before faulting memory into the NPTs.

Calling the make-private arch hook would require iterating both bindings
and the filemap to find the intersection of bindings and allocated
folios. On top of that, SNP would need to figure out whether to actually
make private based on whether the memory is about to be faulted, or
whether it is a conversion.

Calling the make-shared arch hook and not the make-private arch hook does
leak SNP-specific details into guest_memfd (as in, why only make-shared
during conversions but not make-private?), but the additional complexity is
not worth taking on until guest_memfd has a user actually requiring an arch
make-private call.
