Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 07/23] KVM: x86/mmu: Disallow page merging (huge page adjustment) for mirror root
Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2025 17:42:54 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250807094254.4537-1-yan.y.zhao@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250807093950.4395-1-yan.y.zhao@intel.com>
From: "Edgecombe, Rick P" <rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com>
Disallow page merging (huge page adjustment) for the mirror root by
utilizing disallowed_hugepage_adjust().
Make the mirror root check asymmetric with NX huge pages and not to litter
the generic MMU code:
Invoke disallowed_hugepage_adjust() in kvm_tdp_mmu_map() when necessary,
specifically when KVM has mirrored TDP or the NX huge page workaround is
enabled.
Check and reduce the goal_level of a fault internally in
disallowed_hugepage_adjust() when the fault is for a mirror root and
there's a shadow present non-leaf entry at the original goal_level.

RFC v2:
- Check is_mirror_sp() in disallowed_hugepage_adjust() instead of passing
in an is_mirror arg. (Rick)
- Check kvm_has_mirrored_tdp() in kvm_tdp_mmu_map() to determine whether
to invoke disallowed_hugepage_adjust(). (Rick)
RFC v1:
- new patch
