[PATCH v2 2/3] KVM: selftests: Test guest_memfd binding overlap without GPA overlap
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri May 22 2026 - 13:35:34 EST
From: Zongyao Chen <ZongYao.Chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The guest_memfd binding overlap test recreates the deleted slot with GPA
ranges that overlap the still-live slot. KVM rejects those attempts from
the generic memslot overlap check before reaching kvm_gmem_bind(), so the
test can pass even if guest_memfd binding overlap detection is broken.
Recreate the slot at its original, non-overlapping GPA and use guest_memfd
offsets that overlap the front and back halves of the other slot's binding.
Expand the guest_memfd so the back-half case remains within the file size.
Fixes: 2feabb855df8 ("KVM: selftests: Expand set_memory_region_test to validate guest_memfd()")
