Hello, Continuing the discussion from [1], the series tries to add support for the user-space to elect the hypercall services that it wishes to expose to the guest, rather than the guest discovering them unconditionally. The idea employed by the series was taken from [1] as suggested by Marc Z. In a broad sense, the idea is similar to the current implementation of PSCI interface- create a 'firmware psuedo-register' to handle the firmware revisions. The series extends this idea to all the other hypercalls such as TRNG (True Random Number Generator), PV_TIME (Paravirtualized Time), and PTP (Precision Time protocol). For better categorization and future scaling, these firmware registers are categorized based on the service call owners, but unlike the existing firmware psuedo-registers, they hold the features supported in the form of a bitmap. During VM (vCPU) initialization, the registers shows an upper-limit of the features supported by the corresponding registers. The VMM can simply use GET_ONE_REG to discover the features. If it's unhappy with any of the features, it can simply write-back the desired feature bitmap using SET_ONE_REG. KVM allows these modification only until a VM has started. KVM also assumes that the VMM is unaware of a register if a register remains unaccessed (read/write), and would simply clear all the bits of the registers such that the guest accidently doesn't get exposed to the features. Finally, the set of bitmaps from all the registers are the services that are exposed to the guest. In order to provide backward compatibility with already existing VMMs, a new capability, KVM_CAP_ARM_HVC_FW_REG_BMAP, is introduced. To enable the bitmap firmware registers extension, the capability must be explicitly enabled. If not, the behavior is similar to the previous setup. The patches are based off of mainline kernel 5.15, with the selftest patches from [2] applied. Patch-1 factors out the non-PSCI related interface from psci.c to hypercalls.c, as the series would extend the list in the upcoming patches. Patches-2,3 introduces core KVM functions, kvm_vcpu_has_run_once() and kvm_vm_has_run_once() to be used in upcoming patches. Patch-4 sets up the framework for the bitmap firmware psuedo-registers. This includes introducing the capability, KVM_CAP_ARM_HVC_FW_REG_BMAP, read/write helpers for the registers, helper to sanitize the regsiters before VM start, and another helper to check if a particular hypercall service is supported for the guest. It also adds the register KVM_REG_ARM_STD_HYP_BMAP to support ARM's standard secure services. Patch-5 introduces the firmware register, KVM_REG_ARM_STD_HYP_BMAP, which holds the standard hypervisor services (such as PV_TIME). Patch-6 introduces the firmware register, KVM_REG_ARM_VENDOR_HYP_BMAP, which holds the vendor specific hypercall services. Patch-7,8 Add the necessary documentation for the newly added capability and firmware registers. Patch-9 imports the SMCCC definitions from linux/arm-smccc.h into tools/ for further use in selftests. Patch-10 adds the selftest to test the guest (using 'hvc') and VMM interfaces (SET/GET_ONE_REG). Patch-11 adds these firmware registers into the get-reg-list selftest.
