Subject: [PATCH v3 15/24] KVM: x86: Split cross-boundary mirror leafs for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES
Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2026 18:22:36 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260106102236.25177-1-yan.y.zhao@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260106101646.24809-1-yan.y.zhao@intel.com>
In TDX, private page tables require precise zapping because faulting back
the zapped mappings necessitates the guest's re-acceptance. Therefore,
before performing a zap for the private-to-shared conversion, rather than
zapping a huge leaf entry that crosses the boundary of the GFN range to be
zapped, split the leaf entry to ensure GFNs outside the conversion range
are not affected.
Invoke kvm_split_cross_boundary_leafs() in
kvm_arch_pre_set_memory_attributes() to split the huge leafs that cross
GFN range boundary before calling kvm_unmap_gfn_range() to zap the GFN
range that will be converted to shared. Only update flush status if zaps
are performed.
Unlike kvm_unmap_gfn_range(), which cannot fail,
kvm_split_cross_boundary_leafs() may fail due to memory allocation for
splitting. Update kvm_handle_gfn_range() to propagate the error back to
kvm_vm_set_mem_attributes(), which can then fail the ioctl
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.
The downside of current implementation is that though
kvm_split_cross_boundary_leafs() is invoked before kvm_unmap_gfn_range()
for each GFN range, the entire conversion range may consist of several GFN
ranges. If an out-of-memory error occurs during the splitting of a GFN
range, some previous GFN ranges may have been successfully split and
zapped, even though their page attributes remain unchanged due to the
splitting failure.
If it's necessary, a patch can be arranged to divide a single invocation of
"kvm_handle_gfn_range(kvm, &pre_set_range)" into two, e.g.,
kvm_handle_gfn_range(kvm, &pre_set_range_prepare_and_split)
kvm_handle_gfn_range(kvm, &pre_set_range_unmap),

v3:
- Do not return flush status from kvm_split_cross_boundary_leafs(), so
TLB is flushed only if zaps are perfomed.
RFC v2:
- update kvm_split_boundary_leafs() to kvm_split_cross_boundary_leafs() and
invoke it only for priate-to-shared conversion.
RFC v1:
- new patch.
