Subject: [PATCH RFC v4 08/44] KVM: Introduce KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 15:24:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326-gmem-inplace-conversion-v4-8-e202fe950ffd@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326-gmem-inplace-conversion-v4-0-e202fe950ffd@google.com>

Introduce a "version 2" of KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to support returning
information back to userspace.

This new ioctl and structure will, in a later patch, be shared as a
guest_memfd ioctl, where the padding in the new kvm_memory_attributes2
structure will be for writing the response from the guest_memfd ioctl to
userspace.

A new ioctl is necessary for these reasons:

1. KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES is currently a write-only ioctl and does not
   allow userspace to read fields. There's nothing in code (yet?) that
   validates this, but using _IOWR for consistency would be prudent.

2. KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, when used as a guest_memfd ioctl, will need
   an additional field to provide userspace with more error details.

Alternatively, a completely new ioctl could be defined, unrelated to
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, but using the same ioctl number and struct for
the vm and guest_memfd ioctls streamlines the interface for userspace. In
addition, any memory attributes, implemented on the vm or guest_memfd
ioctl, can be easily shared with the other.

Add KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 to indicate that struct
kvm_memory_attributes2 exists and can be used either with
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 via the vm or guest_memfd ioctl.

Handle KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 and return the same supported attributes
as would be returned for KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES - the supported
attributes are the same for now, regardless of the CAP requested.
