Subject: [PATCH] KVM: arm64: pkvm: Fallback to level-3 mapping on host stage-2 fault
Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2026 13:27:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260305132751.2928138-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
If, for any odd reason, we cannot converge to mapping size that is
completely contained in a memblock region, we fail to install a S2
mapping and go back to the faulting instruction. Rince, repeat.
This happens when faulting in regions that are smaller than a page
or that do not have PAGE_SIZE-aligned boundaries (as witnessed on
an O6 board that refuses to boot in protected mode).
In this situation, fallback to using a PAGE_SIZE mapping anyway --
it isn't like we can go any lower.
Fixes: e728e705802fe ("KVM: arm64: Adjust range correctly during host stage-2 faults")
