This supports SDEI_EVENT_{COMPLETE, COMPLETE_AND_RESUME} hypercall.
They are used by guest to notify the completion of event in its

the interrupted or preempted context.

I don't think that's how COMPLETE_AND_RESUME works. The caller specifies an
address at which it would like to begin execution within the client
exception level.
SDEI spec suggests this behaves like a synchronous exception. DEN 0054C
5.2.2 'Event Resume Context' speaks more about how it is supposed to
work.
It's actually the linux convention. If the event handler, which was
specified in previous hypercall to EVENT_REGISTER, returns success,
the (linux) client calls into COMPLETE_AND_RESUME and the resume
address is specified with FIQ vector offset. More details can be
found from arch/arm64/kernel::sdei.c::do_sdei_event().
Thanks,
Gavin
