Subject: [PATCH v2 10/12] KVM: arm64: CCA: Prevent memslot modifications after Realm creation
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 14:57:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111145758.217946-11-steven.price@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111145758.217946-1-steven.price@arm.com>

From: Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com>

Once the Realm is created, prevent any changes to guest_memfd backed
memslots, as the private memory is provided by slots backed by gmem.
This will also be validated when we handle a fault for Realm Stage2 (in
a later commit).

Require Realm memslots to lie in the lower half of the IPA space, as the
upper, shared half aliases the lower, protected half.

A rejected deletion can already have invalidated the memslot before
the prepare hook rejects it. Keep private mappings intact in this
case.

Additionally, similar to pKVM, we do not support dirty logging or
read-only memslots.

Changes since v1:
- Preserve private mappings if KVM invalidates a Realm guest_memfd
  slot before the prepare hook rejects its deletion.
