[PATCH] KVM: riscv: Age all G-stage PTEs in a GFN range
From: SeungJu Cheon
Date: Fri Sep 18 2026 - 03:33:03 EST
kvm_age_gfn() and kvm_test_age_gfn() only operate on the G-stage
leaf covering range->start. They also warn unless the range size is
exactly 4K, 2M, or 1G.
The MM can pass larger ranges when batching the PTEs of a large folio.
For example, a 64K mTHP range triggers the warning and only the first
4K leaf is aged, leaving the Accessed bits of the remaining leaves
unchanged.
This can be reproduced on an rv64 host with Svadu by disabling 2M THP,
enabling 64K mTHP, and running:
access_tracking_perf_test -s anonymous_thp
This results in:

Walk all G-stage leaves in the requested range. Advance by the leaf
size when a mapping is found, or by the size of the non-present region
at the level where the walk stopped. When testing the age, return as
soon as a young leaf is found.
Remove the range-size warning since arbitrary GFN ranges are valid.
