Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] KVM: arm64: ptdump: Fix shadow ptdump sleep-in-atomic-context problem
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 00:03:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916230337.4162485-3-weilin.chang@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260916230337.4162485-1-weilin.chang@arm.com>

Previously we exposed shadow page tables by creating a debugfs ptdump
file whenever a nested mmu instance gets bound to a new context, and
deleting the debugfs file whose context was getting unbound.

This turned out to be buggy, as the instance<->context binding process
is done with the mmu_lock held, and debugfs creation/deletion can sleep.

Change the approach and create a shadow ptdump file for each nested mmu
instead during kvm_vcpu_init_nested(), in a sleepable context. The files
will be named nested_mmu<index>, and reading it will return the nested
context's VTTBR, VTCR, and s2 enabled or not before dumping the shadow
page tables, given the nested mmu is valid.

Fixes: 19e15dc73f0f ("KVM: arm64: nv: Expose shadow page tables in debugfs")
