[PATCH v2 6/6] KVM: arm64: ptdump: Introduce the shadow ptdump file

Wei-Lin Chang weilin.chang at arm.com
Tue Jun 30 05:10:05 PDT 2026


Create a ptdump file for all shadow page tables. It will dump out all
valid shadow page tables at the time of request, with the mmu's index,
guest VTCR_EL2, VTTBR_EL2, and whether the guest stage-2 is enabled or
not.

Also detach the nested mmu array under the mmu_lock in
kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all() so readers cannot race with the array being
removed, then free the old array after dropping the lock.
