Message-ID: <1521453806107107@kroah.com> (raw)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
KVM: arm/arm64: Reduce verbosity of KVM init log
to the 4.15-stable tree which can be found at:
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary
The filename of the patch is:
kvm-arm-arm64-reduce-verbosity-of-kvm-init-log.patch

Subject: KVM: arm/arm64: Reduce verbosity of KVM init log
From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>
commit 76600428c3677659e3c3633bb4f2ea302220a275 upstream.
On my GICv3 system, the following is printed to the kernel log at boot:
kvm [1]: 8-bit VMID
kvm [1]: IDMAP page: d20e35000
kvm [1]: HYP VA range: 800000000000:ffffffffffff
kvm [1]: vgic-v2@2c020000
kvm [1]: GIC system register CPU interface enabled
kvm [1]: vgic interrupt IRQ1
kvm [1]: virtual timer IRQ4
kvm [1]: Hyp mode initialized successfully
The KVM IDMAP is a mapping of a statically allocated kernel structure,
and so printing its physical address leaks the physical placement of
the kernel when physical KASLR in effect. So change the kvm_info() to
kvm_debug() to remove it from the log output.
While at it, trim the output a bit more: IRQ numbers can be found in
/proc/interrupts, and the HYP VA and vgic-v2 lines are not highly
informational either.
