James Morse 4e76efda1f KVM: arm64: Disable MPAM visibility by default and ignore VMM writes 
commit 6685f5d572 upstream.

commit 011e5f5bf5 ("arm64/cpufeature: Add remaining feature bits in
ID_AA64PFR0 register") exposed the MPAM field of AA64PFR0_EL1 to guests,
but didn't add trap handling. A previous patch supplied the missing trap
handling.

Existing VMs that have the MPAM field of ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 set need to
be migratable, but there is little point enabling the MPAM CPU
interface on new VMs until there is something a guest can do with it.

Clear the MPAM field from the guest's ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 and on hardware
that supports MPAM, politely ignore the VMMs attempts to set this bit.

Guests exposed to this bug have the sanitised value of the MPAM field,
so only the correct value needs to be ignored. This means the field
can continue to be used to block migration to incompatible hardware
(between MPAM=1 and MPAM=5), and the VMM can't rely on the field
being ignored.

README 

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.
