Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] KVM: TDX: Syntehsize SHUTDOWN on unhandled EPT Violation
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 17:11:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930001127.3170009-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Signal SHUTDOWN instead of -EIO if the guest accesses an unaccepted page and
has disabled EPT Violation #VEs on such accesses. Returning -EIO is all but
guaranteed to mislead the VMM into thinking KVM (or the VMM) messed up, and
will likely result in the VM being terminated instead of rebooted.
v2:
- Return SHUTDOWN directly, via a new helper. [Rick]
- Ratelimit the error message. [Sashiko, (and past me, amusingly)]
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260923163315.1580860-1-seanjc@google.com
