Yes.

Why? If only the host is using SPE, why should we do *anything at
all*?
Oh yeah of course, we trap them in this case.
(Do I understand correctly that we don't/can't trap them for nVHE? -
and so
we should save/restore them for this use-case in nVHE)
We can always trap. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to hide the feature
from the guest.

As long as you do it after the EL1 sysregs have need restored so that
the
SPE
HW has a valid context, we should be fine. Don't restore it before
that
point
though (you have no idea whether the SPE HW can do speculative memory
accesses
that would use the wrong page tables).
Right, so don't enable tracing until SPE has a valid context. I
understand
that to mean at least the SPE buffer address registers (PMBPTR,
PMBLIMITR)
in the right context with respect to the E2PB bits (translation regime)
and having those tables mapped in (which I think relate to the
__activateX,
__sysreg_restore_guest_stateX type of calls in kvm_vcpu_run_X right?).
The full MM context has to be in place before you can do anything. This
means
at least TTBR*_EL1, TCR_EL1 and co. But maybe this note in the SPE
architecture
document would allow us to relax things:
"The Statistical Profiling Extension is always disabled if the owning
Exception
level is a lower Exception level than the current Exception level."
So as long as you restore the guest state from EL2, SPE should be
disabled.
I think that means we can restore the registers no earler than
vcpu_load/put
but we can't re-enable the tracing (PMSCR) until no earlier than just
before
__set_guest_arch_workaround_state. I think that applies to both VHE and
nVHE?
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you mean.
