Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: arm64: PSCI fixes
Date: Wed,  1 Apr 2020 17:58:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200401165816.530281-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)

Christoffer recently pointed out that we don't narrow the arguments to
SMC32 PSCI functions called by a 64bit guest. This could result in a
guest failing to boot its secondary CPUs if it had junk in the upper
32bits. Yes, this is silly, but the guest is allowed to do that. Duh.

Whist I was looking at this, it became apparent that we allow a 32bit
guest to call 64bit functions, which the spec explicitly forbids. Oh
well, another patch.

This has been lightly tested, but I feel that we could do with a new
set of PSCI corner cases in KVM-unit-tests (hint, nudge... ;-).
