KVM doesn't expect any synchronous exceptions when executing, any such exception leads to a panic(). AT instructions access the guest page tables, and can cause a synchronous external abort to be taken. The arm-arm is unclear on what should happen if the guest has configured the hardware update of the access-flag, and a memory type in TCR_EL1 that does not support atomic operations. B2.2.6 "Possible implementation restrictions on using atomic instructions" from DDI0487F.a lists synchronous external abort as a possible behaviour of atomic instructions that target memory that isn't writeback cacheable, but the page table walker may behave differently. Make KVM robust to synchronous exceptions caused by AT instructions. Add a get_user() style helper for AT instructions that returns -EFAULT if an exception was generated. While KVM's version of the exception table mixes synchronous and asynchronous exceptions, only one of these can occur at each location. Re-enter the guest when the AT instructions take an exception on the assumption the guest will take the same exception. This isn't guaranteed to make forward progress, as the AT instructions may always walk the page tables, but guest execution may use the translation cached in the TLB. This isn't a problem, as since commit |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
