[PATCH v4 3/3] KVM: arm64: Reject shared table walks in the hyp code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Exclusive table walks are the only supported table walk in the hyp, as
there is no construct like RCU available in the hypervisor code. Reject
any attempt to do a shared table walk by returning an error and allowing
the caller to clean up the mess.
