For stage 2 data aborts generated by a stage 1 translation table walk (i.e. the actual page table access faults at EL2), the WnR bit therefore reports whether the instruction generating the walk was a load or a store, *not* whether the page table walker was reading or writing the entry. For page tables marked as read-only at stage 2 (e.g. due to KSM merging them with the tables from another guest), this could result in livelock, where a page table walk generated by a load instruction attempts to set the access flag in the stage 1 descriptor, but fails to trigger CoW in the host since only a read fault is reported. This patch modifies the arm64 kvm_vcpu_dabt_iswrite function to take into account stage 2 faults in stage 1 walks. Since DBM cannot be disabled at EL2 for CPUs that implement it, we assume that these faults are always causes by writes, avoiding the livelock situation at the expense of occasional, spurious CoWs. We could, in theory, do a bit better by checking the guest TCR configuration and inspecting the page table to see why the PTE faulted. However, I doubt this is measurable in practice, and the threat of livelock is real.
