From: Chao Gao <chao.gao@xxxxxxxxx> Current TD guest doesn't invoke MAP_GPA to convert MMIO range to shared before accessing it. It implies that current TD guest assumes MMIOs are shared. When TD tries to access assigned device's MMIO as shared, an EPT violation is raised first. kvm_mem_is_private() checks the page shared or private attribute against the access type (shared bit in GPA). Then since no MAP_GPA is called for the MMIO, KVM thinks the MMIO is private and refuses shared access and doesn't set up shared EPT. Then KVM returns to TD and TD just retries and this causes an infinite loop. Instead of requiring guest to invoke MAP_GPA for MMIOs, assume guest MMIOs are shared in KVM as well and don't expect explicit calls of MAP_GAP for guest MMIOs (i.e., GPAs either have no kvm_memory_slot or are backed by host MMIOs). So, allow shared access to guest MMIOs and move the page type check after the corresponding pfn is available.
