[PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: arm64: Resume a pKVM stage-2 teardown at the next mapping
From: Fuad Tabba
Date: Wed Nov 04 2026 - 07:45:23 EST
pKVM keeps a VM's stage-2 mappings in an interval tree, and
pkvm_pgtable_stage2_destroy_range() releases the ones in its range.
stage2_destroy_range() still calls it for every block-sized chunk of the
IPA space. As pKVM gives every VM the host's IPA limit, a teardown with
LPA2 makes 2^27 calls with 16K pages (2^22 with 4K), however little the
VM maps.
Return the address of the next mapping instead, or U64_MAX when none is
left, so that the teardown skips the space between mappings. No mapping
crosses a chunk boundary, as pKVM maps at most PMD_SIZE, so the next one
starts at or above the end of the range. A VM without a handle doesn't
have anything mapped, so return U64_MAX for it straight away.
