Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: arm64: Fix guest feature sanitization and pKVM state synchronization
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 14:38:11 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260213143815.1732675-1-tabba@google.com> (raw)
This series addresses state management and feature synchronization
vulnerabilities in both standard KVM and pKVM implementations on arm64.
The primary focus is ensuring that the hypervisor correctly handles
architectural extensions during context switches to prevent state
corruption.
Changes since v1 [1]:
- Moved optimising away S1POE handling when not supported by host to a
separate patch.
- Fixed clearing, checking and setting KVM_ARCH_FLAG_ID_REGS_INITIALIZED
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260212090252.158689-1-tabba@google.com/
Based on Linux 6.19.
Cheers,
