[PATCH v2 1/5] KVM: arm64: nvhe: Synchronise with page table walker on vcpu run

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

 



When taking an exception between the EL1&0 translation regime and
the EL2 translation regime, the page table walker is allowed to
complete the walks started from EL0 or EL1 while running at EL2.

It means that altering the system registers that define the EL1&0
translation regime is fraught with danger *unless* we wait for
the completion of such walk with a DSB (R_LFHQG and subsequent
statements in the ARM ARM). We already did the right thing for
other external agents (SPE, TRBE), but not the PTW.

Rework the existing SPE/TRBE synchronisation to include the PTW,
and add the missing DSB on guest exit.
