Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] KVM: arm64: EL2 synchronisation and pKVM stage-2 error propagation fixes
Date: Fri, 1 May 2026 12:21:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260501112149.2824881-1-tabba@google.com> (raw)
Hi folks,
V2 of the kvm/arm64 audit fixes [1].
Changes since v1:
Patch 1 (SCTLR_EL2.EIS|EOS): Fixes: tag corrected to 0a35bd285f43
("arm64: Convert SCTLR_EL2 to sysreg infrastructure"); the commit
message now explains that the conversion auto-generated
SCTLR_EL2_RES1 to UL(0). Code unchanged.
Patches 2-3 (NULL vcpu guard, __deactivate_fgt typo): unchanged.
Patch 4 (new): Seed selftest_vcpu's memcache to mirror
hyp-main.c's pkvm_refill_memcache() flow; required by the
pre-check in patches 5-6.
Patches 5-6 (host->guest share/donate, formerly v1 patches 5-6):
reworked to pre-check the vcpu memcache against
kvm_mmu_cache_min_pages() during the existing pre-check pass,
before any state mutation. The WARN_ON() around
kvm_pgtable_stage2_map() then asserts an invariant the pre-check
pass establishes, rather than swallowing a reachable -ENOMEM.
Dropped since v1:
- Patch 2 (HCR_EL2 sync): failure path not reachable.
- Patches 7-8 (guest->host share/unshare): the stage-2 map cannot
fail at those call sites (the leaf already exists).
Carried `Reviewed-by` tag (thanks!) and added `Assisted-by:` tags.
Note that with `review-prompts` in the `Assisted-by:` tags, I am
referring to subsystem guides that I added to the base prompts [2],
which I plan submit for upstreaming.
Cheers,
/fuad
