No, I'm not talking on the page migration handling itself, I know page migration requires coordination from both core-mm and KVM. I'm more concerning on the page migration prevention here. This is something we need to address for TDX before the page migration is supported. > > For normal pages, page migration is totally done by the core-kernel (i.e. it > unmaps page from VMA, allocates a new page, and uses migrate_pape() or a_ops- > >migrate_page() to actually migrate the page). > > In the sense of TDX, conceptually it should be done in the same way. The more > important thing is: yes KVM can use get_page() to prevent page migration, but > when KVM wants to support it, KVM cannot just remove get_page(), as the core- > kernel will still just do migrate_page() which won't work for TDX (given > restricted_memfd doesn't have a_ops->migrate_page() implemented). > > So I think the restricted_memfd filesystem should own page migration handling, > (i.e. by implementing a_ops->migrate_page() to either just reject page migration > or somehow support it). > > To support page migration, it may require KVM's help in case of TDX (the > TDH.MEM.PAGE.RELOCATE SEAMCALL requires "GPA" and "level" of EPT mapping, which > are only available in KVM), but that doesn't make KVM to own the handling of > page migration. > > > > > Wouldn't better to let TDX code (or who > > > requires that) to increase/decrease the refcount when it populates/drops > > > the secure EPT entries?

Removing get_page() is definitely not enough for page migration support. But the key thing is for page migration prevention, other than get_page(), do we really have alternative.
