Subject: [PATCH 15/17] KVM: TDX: Handle removal of leaf SPTEs in .set_private_spte()
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2026 13:14:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260327201421.2824383-16-rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260327201421.2824383-1-rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com>

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Drop kvm_x86_ops.remove_external_spte(), and instead handling the removal
of leaf SPTEs in the S-EPT (a.k.a. external root) in .set_private_spte().
This will allow extending tdx_sept_set_private_spte() to support splitting
a huge S-EPT entry without needing yet another kvm_x86_ops hook.

Bug the VM if the callback fails, as redundant KVM_BUG_ON() calls are
benign (the WARN will fire if and only if the VM isn't already bugged) and
handle_changed_spte() is most definitely not prepared to handle failure.
