Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 17/18] KVM: TDX: Assert that mmu_lock is held for write when removing S-EPT entries
Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2025 17:06:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250829000618.351013-18-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250829000618.351013-1-seanjc@google.com>
Unconditionally assert that mmu_lock is held for write when removing S-EPT
entries, not just when removing S-EPT entries triggers certain conditions,
e.g. needs to do TDH_MEM_TRACK or kick vCPUs out of the guest.
Conditionally asserting implies that it's safe to hold mmu_lock for read
when those paths aren't hit, which is simply not true, as KVM doesn't
support removing S-EPT entries under read-lock.
Only two paths lead to remove_external_spte(), and both paths asserts that
mmu_lock is held for write (tdp_mmu_set_spte() via lockdep, and
handle_removed_pt() via KVM_BUG_ON()).
Deliberately leave lockdep assertions in the "no vCPUs" helpers to document
that wait_for_sept_zap is guarded by holding mmu_lock for write.
