[PATCH v3 3/3] KVM: riscv: Register ptdump with debugfs on guest creation

Dylan.Wu fredwudi0305 at gmail.com
Tue Jul 28 09:14:49 PDT 2026


Implement the gstage page table dumper for RISC-V KVM, which exposes
the guest's gstage page tables via debugfs. When
CONFIG_PTDUMP_GSTAGE_DEBUGFS is enabled, a "gstage_page_tables" file
will be created under each VM's debugfs directory.

This reuses the ptdump framework from the kernel page table dumper,
with gstage-specific attribute bits and level definitions.
