Subject: [PATCH v3 00/16] Add Nested NPT support in selftests
Date: Thu, 27 Nov 2025 01:34:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251127013440.3324671-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev> (raw)
This series adds support for nested NPT, then extends vmx_dirty_log_test
and kvm_dirty_log_test (with -n, using memstress) to cover nested SVM.
Patches 1-5 are cleanups and prep.
Patches 6-7 introduce a new data structure, kvm_mmu, that is used by virt
mapping functions for guest page tables.
Patches 8-11 add a nested kvm_mmu for nested EPTs, which are now shared
between all vCPUs, and reuses the virt mapping functions for EPTs.
Patches 12-14 add the support for nested NPTs, which becomes simple
after all the above prep work.
Patches 15-16 extend the existing selftests exercising nested EPTs to
also cover nested NPTs.
v2 -> v3:
- Dropped the patches that landed in kvm-x86.
- Reshuffled some patches and cleanups.
- Introduced kvm_mmu data structures to hold the root, page table
levels, and page table masks (Sean).
- Extended memstress as well to cover nested SVM.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20251021074736.1324328-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev/
