Subject: [PATCH v1 1/4] KVM: arm64: Move the IPA limit rule into kvm_get_ipa_max()
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 10:18:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917091826.2639205-2-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260917091826.2639205-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>
Move the rule kvm_set_ipa_limit() applies to PARange into a helper
beside kvm_get_parange(), which bounds the same field by a different
rule, so the hypervisor can size a guest's IPA space by it.
No functional change intended.
