Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: arm64: vgic-v4: Don't allocate vPEs when userspace clears nASSGIcap
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 10:13:18 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028101318.2170928-3-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028101318.2170928-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>

Since commit c652887a92887 ("KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Allow userspace to
write GICD_TYPER2.nASSGIcap"), userspace can disable vPE allocation for
a VM on a GICv4.1 host with vSGIs by clearing nASSGIcap before the vgic
is initialised. vgic_init() then skips vgic_v4_init(), and
kvm_vgic_dist_destroy() skips vgic_v4_teardown(). vgic_its_create()
still calls vgic_v4_init() for an ITS created after the vgic is
initialised, though, and vgic_v4_init() allocates the vPEs and requests
a doorbell IRQ for each vCPU. Destroying the VM leaks them, and leaves
each doorbell handler registered with a vCPU that's about to be freed.

Move the part of vgic_supports_direct_msis() that doesn't depend on the
ITS into vgic_supports_vpes(), together with vgic_v4_init()'s GICv3
check. Gate vgic_v4_init() on it rather than on
vgic_supports_direct_irqs(), which reads has_its before
vgic_its_create() sets it. vgic_supports_direct_msis() returns what it
did before, since vgic_has_its() is already false for a non-GICv3 VM.

Fixes: c652887a92887 ("KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Allow userspace to write GICD_TYPER2.nASSGIcap")
