[PATCH v6 15/26] KVM: arm64: Initialise hypervisor copies of host symbols unconditionally

Will Deacon will at kernel.org
Thu Nov 10 11:02:48 PST 2022


The nVHE object at EL2 maintains its own copies of some host variables
so that, when pKVM is enabled, the host cannot directly modify the
hypervisor state. When running in normal nVHE mode, however, these
variables are still mirrored at EL2 but are not initialised.

Initialise the hypervisor symbols from the host copies regardless of
pKVM, ensuring that any reference to this data at EL2 with normal nVHE
will return a sensibly initialised value.
