[PATCH v3 0/5] KVM nVHE Hypervisor stack unwinder

From: Kalesh Singh
Date: Tue Jun 07 2022 - 12:51:22 EST


Hi all,

This v3 of the nVHE hypervisor stack unwinder. The previous versions were
posted at:
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220502191222.4192768-1-kaleshsingh@xxxxxxxxxx/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220427184716.1949239-1-kaleshsingh@xxxxxxxxxx/

The version is rebased on 5.19-rc1 which resolves the previously unmerged
dependencies, and adds some reviewed tags from Mark Brown.

The cover letter are copied below for convenience.

Thanks,
Kalesh

-------

This new version of the unwinder splits the unwinding and dumping
of the stack between the hypervisor and host:
- The hypervisor unwinds its stack and dumps the address entries
into a page shared with the host.
- The host then symnolizes and prints the hyp stacktrace from
the shared page.

The new approach doesn't depend on CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG,
and allows dumping hyp stacktraces in prodcution environments
(!CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG).

arm64/kernel/stacktrace.c is compiled twice: stacktrace.o for the
host kernel and stacktrace.nvhe.o for the hypervisor. This allows
reusing most of the host unwinding logic in the nVHE hypervisor.

Kalesh Singh (5):
KVM: arm64: Factor out common stack unwinding logic
KVM: arm64: Compile stacktrace.nvhe.o
KVM: arm64: Add hypervisor overflow stack
KVM: arm64: Allocate shared stacktrace pages
KVM: arm64: Unwind and dump nVHE hypervisor stacktrace
