Another idea: if VM_SHARED is found for any vma within a region in kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region(), we either prevent the enabling of MTE for the guest or reject the memory slot if MTE was already enabled. An alternative here would be to clear VM_MTE_ALLOWED so that any subsequent mprotect(PROT_MTE) in the VMM would fail in arch_validate_flags(). MTE would still be allowed in the guest but in the VMM for the guest memory regions. We can probably do this irrespective of VM_SHARED. Of course, the VMM can still mmap() the memory initially with PROT_MTE but that's not an issue IIRC, only the concurrent mprotect(). -- Catalin
