Re: [PATCH 06/14] KVM: arm64: Tolerate re-creating hyp mappings to set ignored bits

Hi Quentin,

The current hypervisor stage-1 mapping code doesn't allow changing an
existing valid mapping. Relax this condition by allowing changes that
only target ignored bits, as that will soon be needed to annotate shared
pages.

Wouldn't this return false if both ignored and non-ignored bits were
different, or is that not possible (judging by the WARN_ON)? If it is,
then it would need an update, wouldn't it?

Thanks,
