Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] KVM: s390: vsie: Fix unshadowing logic
Date: Tue, 12 May 2026 19:52:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260512175251.300882-4-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260512175251.300882-1-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com>

In some cases (i.e. under extreme memory pressure on the host),
attempting to shadow memory will result in the same memory being
unshadowed, causing a loop.

Add a PGSTE bit to distinguish between shadowed memory and shadowed DAT
tables, fix the unshadowing logic in _gmap_ptep_xchg() to prevent
unnecessary unshadowing and perform better checks.

Also fix the unshadowing logic in _gmap_crstep_xchg_atomic() which did
not unshadow properly when the large page would become unprotected.

Opportunistilcally add a check in gmap_protect_rmap() to make sure it
won't be called with level == TABLE_TYPE_PAGE_TABLE.
