Linux kernel source tree
71b7bf1702
The new __kvm_faultin_pfn() function is upset by the fact that e500 KVM ignores host page permissions - __kvm_faultin requires a "writable" outgoing argument, but e500 KVM is passing NULL. While a simple fix would be possible that simply allows writable to be NULL, it is quite ugly to have e500 KVM ignore completely the host permissions and map readonly host pages as guest-writable. Merge a more complete fix and remove the VMA-based attempts at building huge shadow TLB entries. Using a PTE lookup, similar to what is done for x86, is better and works with remap_pfn_range() because it does not assume that VM_PFNMAP areas are contiguous. Note that the same incorrect logic is there in ARM's get_vma_page_shift() and RISC-V's kvm_riscv_gstage_ioremap(). Fortunately, for e500 most of the code is already there; it just has to be changed to compute the range from find_linux_pte()'s output rather than find_vma(). The new code works for both VM_PFNMAP and hugetlb mappings, so the latter is removed. Patches 2-5 were tested by the reporter, Christian Zigotzky. Since the difference with v1 is minimal, I am going to send it to Linus today. |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
