[PATCH] hvf: arm: Add simple dirty bitmap tracking


From: Alexander Graf
Subject: [PATCH] hvf: arm: Add simple dirty bitmap tracking
Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2022 15:23:20 +0100

The actual tracking of dirty bitmap updates is happening in architecture code.
So far, the aarch64 hvf code has not updated QEMU's dirty bitmap at all. The
net result of that is that the VGA device's framebuffer would not update.

This patch adds simplistic dirty bitmap updates. Unfortunately hvf can only set
permissions per full region, so we have to mark the complete region as dirty
when only a single byte was modified inside.

We also handle the write protect update logic before we handle any writes.
This allows us to even handle non-ISV instructions on dirty logging enabled
memory regions: Once we flip the region to writable again, we just rerun
the trapping instruction.
