This supports SDEI_VERSION hypercall by returning v1.1, which is
the specification version we're following. The vendor is set to
'KVM'.

It looks like the SDEI specification states that the vendor-defined
version number is 32 bits. Could we just use one of the
ARM_SMCCC_VENDOR_HYP_UID_KVM_REG_{0,3} values instead?

ASCII 'KVM' is neat, but in reality guest software will just throw it in
a macro regardless. Might as well use one of the values we've already
trained it to use :-)

Also, it would appear that guest discovery of SDEI relies upon KVM
reporting a valid SDEI version. IMO, this patch should come at the very
end when KVM actually implements SDEI.


Yeah, I was sticky to the pattern of "KVM". However, I think it's good
to reuse the existing one. Lets use ARM_SMCCC_VENDOR_HYP_UID_KVM_REG_2
if you agree. Its first two characters are "VM" at least.

Sounds fine to me. The only other nit I'd say is we should define a
macro for it too, something like:

   #define KVM_SDEI_VENDOR	ARM_SMCCC_VENDOR_HYP_UID_KVM_REG_2


Agreed, and the macro will be put into arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_sdei.h.
arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/kvm_sdei_state.h isn't the right place because
the dependent macro ARM_SMCCC_VENDOR_HYP_UID_KVM_REG_2 isn't exposed by
ABI.

Thanks,
Gavin
