[RFC PATCH v2 09/31] KVM: arm/arm64: Manage mmus for nested VMs

Mon Oct 2 20:10:51 PDT 2017


Now that a hypervisor can run in the virtual EL2, the guest hypervisor
can assign any VMID to its own VMs. To avoid conflicts between VMIDs
among a host and guest(s), the host hypervisor maps each VMID from a
guest hypervisor's view (i.e. virtual VMID) to an unique shadow VMID.
It also manages a set of shadow stage-2 page tables for each shadow
VMID. All this information is stored in kvm_nested_s2_mmu struct.

A host hypervisor manages a list of kvm_nested_s2_mmu objects per VM. On
a VM entry it searches an object in the list using a virtual VMID as a
key.

Notes:
    v1-->v2:
    - This is a merged commit of [RFC 39/55] and [RFC 40/55].
    - Updated the commit message and comments.
    - Defer creating a new nested mmu structure until we enter the VM with stage 2
      paging enabled, which was previously done on vttbr_el2 write operations.
    - Use the existing kvm->mmu_lock when iterating nested mmus instead of creating one.
