Hi all, This is v4 of the patch series previously posted here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210729132818.4091769-1-qperret@xxxxxxxxxx/ This series aims to improve how the nVHE hypervisor tracks ownership of memory pages when running in protected mode ("kvm-arm.mode=protected" on the kernel command line). The main issue with the existing ownership tracking code is that it is completely binary: a page is either owned by an entity (e.g. the host) or not. However, we'll need something smarter to track shared pages, as is needed for virtio, or even just host/hypervisor communications. This series introduces a few changes to the kvm page-table library to allow annotating shared pages in ignored bits (a.k.a. software bits) of leaf entries, and makes use of that infrastructure to track all pages that are shared between the host and the hypervisor. We will obviously want to apply the same treatment to guest stage-2 page-tables, but that is not really possible to do until EL2 manages them directly, so I'll keep that for another series. The series is based on the 5.14-rc5, and has been tested on AML-S905X-CC (Le Potato) and using various Qemu configurations. Changes since v3 - Fixed typos in comments / commit messages; - Various small cleanups and refactoring; - Rebased on 5.14-rc5.
