Subject: [PATCH v17 05/24] KVM: Rename CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM to CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2025 15:54:36 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250729225455.670324-6-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250729225455.670324-1-seanjc@google.com>
From: Fuad Tabba <tabba@google.com>
The original name was vague regarding its functionality. This Kconfig
option specifically enables and gates the kvm_gmem_populate() function,
which is responsible for populating a GPA range with guest data.
The new name, HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE, describes the purpose of the
option: to enable arch-specific guest_memfd population mechanisms. It
also follows the same pattern as the other HAVE_KVM_ARCH_* configuration
options.
This improves clarity for developers and ensures the name accurately
reflects the functionality it controls, especially as guest_memfd
support expands beyond purely "private" memory scenarios.
Temporarily keep KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM as an x86-only config so as to
minimize churn, and to hopefully make it easier to see what features
require HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE. On that note, omit GMEM_POPULATE
for KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, as regular ol' memset() suffices for
software-protected VMs.
As for KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM, a future change will select KVM_GUEST_MEMFD
for all 64-bit KVM builds, at which point the intermediate config will
become obsolete and can/will be dropped.
