[PATCH v4 5/8] KVM: arm64: Detect and handle hypervisor stack overflows

Thu Feb 24 19:34:50 PST 2022


The hypervisor stacks (for both nVHE Hyp mode and nVHE protected mode)
are aligned to twice their size (PAGE_SIZE), meaning that any valid stack
address has PAGE_SHIFT bit as 0. This allows us to conveniently check for
overflow in the exception entry without corrupting any GPRs. We won't
recover from a stack overflow so panic the hypervisor.

Changes in v3:
  - Remove test_sp_overflow macro, per Mark
  - Add asmlinkage attribute for hyp_panic, hyp_panic_bad_stack, per Ard
