Subject: [PATCH v2 00/12] KVM: arm64: CCA: Prepare Realm memory management
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 14:57:44 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111145758.217946-1-steven.price@arm.com> (raw)
This series adds the memory management plumbing for CCA, building on the
basic RMM support [1]. Thank you to those who reviewed v1 - I'm
attempted to address all the comments.
The patches introduce internal Realm VM state and RMI feature checks,
prepare Realm stage-2 setup and teardown, and provide RTT mapping and
invalidation helpers. Realm memslots are restricted to the lower half
of the IPA space because the protected and shared halves alias each
other. The final patch connects the helpers to KVM's stage-2 MMU
operations.
This is the memory management portion of the larger Realm host series.
Realm descriptor creation, REC entry and exit, activation, and the new
uAPI follow in the integration stack. This series alone does not enable
Realm creation.
As before there's an integration branch[2] that includes the realm
creation, REC entry/exit etc building on top of this series. I've also
pushed a git branch[3] of just this series.
Changes since v1:
- Add a guest_memfd prerequisite patch that checks whether the backing
file supports mmap when preparing an arm64 memslot.
- Combine the RMI availability and feature checks into one patch, and
move Realm vCPU feature restrictions to the integration stack.
- Correct Realm IPA sizing and RTT teardown, including teardown before
activation, RTT accounting, and handling of missing or folded RTTs.
- Rework RTT mapping to respect IPA and physical alignment, handle
partial RMI progress, and retry interrupted operations.
- Preserve private mappings when a Realm guest_memfd memslot deletion is
rejected, and tighten Realm fault handling and stage-2 destruction.
