[PATCH v15 05/37] KVM: arm64: CCA: Check for LPA2 support

Steven Price steven.price at arm.com
Wed Jul 15 07:28:07 PDT 2026


If KVM has enabled LPA2 support then check that the RMM also supports
it. If there is a mismatch then disable support for realm guests as the
VMM may attempt to create a guest which is incompatible with the RMM.

v15:
 * Extend rmi_has_feature() to take the register number and check the
   presence of SHA-256 support which is default.
v13:
 * New patch
