[PATCH] x86/hyperv/vtl: Stop kernel from probing VTL0 low memory
From: Roman Kisel
Date: Fri Jan 17 2025 - 12:01:53 EST
> For Linux, running in Hyper-V VTL (Virtual Trust Level), kernel in VTL2
> tries to access VTL0 low memory in probe_roms. This memory is not
> described in the e820 map. Initialize probe_roms call to no-ops
> during boot for VTL2 kernel to avoid this. The issue got identified
> in OpenVMM which detects invalid accesses initiated from kernel running
> in VTL2.
