Subject: [PATCH v2] RISC-V: KVM: Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions
Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2025 21:55:06 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251111135506.8526-1-fangyu.yu@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)

From: Fangyu Yu <fangyu.yu@linux.alibaba.com>

When executing HLV* instructions at the HS mode, a guest page fault
may occur when a g-stage page table migration between triggering the
virtual instruction exception and executing the HLV* instruction.

This may be a corner case, and one simpler way to handle this is to
re-execute the instruction where the virtual  instruction exception
occurred, and the guest page fault will be automatically handled.

Fixes: b91f0e4cb8a3 ("RISC-V: KVM: Factor-out instruction emulation into separate sources")
Signed-off-by: Fangyu Yu <fangyu.yu@linux.alibaba.com>

Changes in v2:
- Remove unnecessary modifications and add comments(suggested by Anup)
- Update Fixes tag
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20250912134332.22053-1-fangyu.yu@linux.alibaba.com/
