Three small changes to the RISC-V G-stage page fault path, sent as
separate patches per review feedback.
1/3: Treat -EEXIST from kvm_riscv_gstage_map_page() as a quiet
success, aligning RISC-V with x86 and arm64. Real bug fix;
Fixes: 9d05c1fee837, Cc: stable.
2/3: vma_pageshift: short -> unsigned int. No-functional-change
type cleanup in preparation for sharing a common
struct kvm_page_fault across architectures.
3/3: Widen the G-stage fault address to gpa_t end to end -- the
local in gstage_page_fault(), the (gpa_t) cast before the <<2
shift, and the fault_addr parameters of kvm_riscv_vcpu_mmio_load/
store(). This completes the RV32 34-bit GPA fix that v2 only
half-addressed: v2 widened the local and cast the shift, but the
address was still narrowed to 32 bits at the MMIO handler call
(unsigned long parameter), aliasing accesses above 4 GB into the
low 4 GB. The handlers' internal uses (run->mmio.phys_addr is
__u64, kvm_io_bus_read/write() take gpa_t) are already 64-bit.
Also in preparation for sharing a common struct kvm_page_fault.
No functional change on RV64. Not Cc'd to stable: RV32 KVM is
unsupported and this is untested at runtime.
Changes since v2 [1]:
- Split into separate patches per feedback.
- Completed the fault_addr widening v2 left half-done: widened the
kvm_riscv_vcpu_mmio_load/store() fault_addr parameters to gpa_t so
the 34-bit address is not truncated at the MMIO handler call.
The KVM_MEM_USERFAULT port that motivated this cleanup will follow as a
separate RFC.
