[PATCH v3 15/20] kvm: arm/arm64: Allow tuning the physical address size for VM

From: Suzuki K Poulose
Date: Fri Jun 29 2018 - 07:17:03 EST


Allow specifying the physical address size for a new VM via
the kvm_type argument for KVM_CREATE_VM ioctl. This allows
us to finalise the stage2 page table format as early as possible
and hence perform the right checks on the memory slots without
complication. The size is encoded as Log2(PA_Size) in the bits[7:0]
of the type field and can encode more information in the future if
required. The IPA size is still capped at 40bits.
