Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: arm64: Don't defer TLB invalidation when zapping table entries
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2024 12:48:50 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240327124853.11206-2-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240327124853.11206-1-will@kernel.org>

Commit 7657ea920c54 ("KVM: arm64: Use TLBI range-based instructions for
unmap") introduced deferred TLB invalidation for the stage-2 page-table
so that range-based invalidation can be used for the accumulated
addresses. This works fine if the structure of the page-tables remains
unchanged, but if entire tables are zapped and subsequently freed then
we transiently leave the hardware page-table walker with a reference
to freed memory thanks to the translation walk caches. For example,
stage2_unmap_walker() will free page-table pages:

	if (childp)
		mm_ops->put_page(childp);

and issue the TLB invalidation later in kvm_pgtable_stage2_unmap():

	if (stage2_unmap_defer_tlb_flush(pgt))
		/* Perform the deferred TLB invalidations */
		kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range(pgt->mmu, addr, size);

For now, take the conservative approach and invalidate the TLB eagerly
when we clear a table entry. Note, however, that the existing level
hint passed to __kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_ipa() is incorrect and will be
fixed in a subsequent patch.
