Subject: [PATCH v4 1/5] KVM: riscv: Avoid overwriting G-stage tables with huge leaves
Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2026 06:00:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260815100019.860693-1-jinyu.tang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260815095548.860018-1-jinyu.tang@linux.dev>

RISC-V KVM can overwrite an existing G-stage table entry when
installing a huge leaf mapping. If the target huge range already has a
lower-level page table, kvm_riscv_gstage_set_pte() can replace the
non-leaf entry with a leaf PTE and disconnect the lower-level page
table.

Reject replacing a valid table entry with a leaf PTE. If huge-page
installation hits such a conflict, fall back to a 4K mapping for the
original faulting GPA in the MMU fault path, where the original GPA and
HFN are still available.

Suggested-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Fixes: 9d05c1fee837 ("RISC-V: KVM: Implement stage2 page table programming")
