[PATCH v2 0/5] KVM: kvm_set_memory_region() cleanups

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

 



Cleanups related to kvm_set_memory_region(), salvaged from similar patches
that were flying around when we were sorting out KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2.

And, hopefully, the KVM-internal memslots hardening will also be useful for
s390's ucontrol stuff (https://lore.kernel.org/all/Z4FJNJ3UND8LSJZz@xxxxxxxxxx).

v2:
 - Keep check_memory_region_flags() where it is. [Xiaoyao]
 - Rework the changelog for the last patch to account for the change in
   motiviation.
 - Fix double spaces goofs. [Tao]
 - Add a lockdep assertion in the x86 code, too. [Tao]

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240802205003.353672-1-seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx

Sean Christopherson (5):
  KVM: Open code kvm_set_memory_region() into its sole caller (ioctl()
    API)
  KVM: Assert slots_lock is held when setting memory regions
  KVM: Add a dedicated API for setting KVM-internal memslots
  KVM: x86: Drop double-underscores from __kvm_set_memory_region()
  KVM: Disallow all flags for KVM-internal memslots
