[RFC PATCH 08/18] KVM: x86: Add KVM Userfault support

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

 



The first prong for enabling KVM Userfault support for x86 is to be able
to inform userspace of userfaults. We know when userfaults occurs when
fault->pfn comes back as KVM_PFN_ERR_FAULT, so in
kvm_mmu_prepare_memory_fault_exit(), simply check if fault->pfn is
indeed KVM_PFN_ERR_FAULT. This means always setting fault->pfn to a
known value (I have chosen KVM_PFN_ERR_FAULT) before calling
kvm_mmu_prepare_memory_fault_exit().

The next prong is to unmap pages that are newly userfault-enabled. Do
this in kvm_arch_pre_set_memory_attributes().

The final prong is to only allow PAGE_SIZE mappings when KVM Userfault
is enabled. This prevents us from mapping a userfault-enabled gfn with a
fault on a non-userfault-enabled gfn.
