Subject: [PATCH 2/5] KVM: e500: use shadow TLB entry as witness for writability
Date: Thu, 9 Jan 2025 14:38:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250109133817.314401-3-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250109133817.314401-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
kvmppc_e500_ref_setup is returning whether the guest TLB entry is writable,
which is than passed to kvm_release_faultin_page. This makes little sense
for two reasons: first, because the function sets up the private data for
the page and the return value feels like it has been bolted on the side;
second, because what really matters is whether the _shadow_ TLB entry is
writable. If it is not writable, the page can be released as non-dirty.
Shift from using tlbe_is_writable(gtlbe) to doing the same check on
the shadow TLB entry.
