[PATCH v14 030/113] KVM: Allow page-sized MMU caches to be initialized with custom 64-bit values

From: isaku . yamahata
Date: Mon May 29 2023 - 00:24:35 EST


From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add support to MMU caches for initializing a page with a custom 64-bit
value, e.g. to pre-fill an entire page table with non-zero PTE values.
The functionality will be used by x86 to support Intel's TDX, which needs
to set bit 63 in all non-present PTEs in order to prevent !PRESENT page
faults from getting reflected into the guest (Intel's EPT Violation #VE
architecture made the less than brilliant decision of having the per-PTE
behavior be opt-out instead of opt-in).
