Hi, Here is V2 of the KVM Guest Debug support for arm64. Although there has been an increase in the total number of patches the implementation is both simpler and more complete. Gone are most of the changes that touch hyp.S replaced with C based hooks kvm_arch_setup/clear_debug() that manipulate the VCPU context before entering hyp.S. As a result I dropped the re-factoring patch for simplicity. The API has been simplified to pass the syndrome information directly back to user-space and leaving it to figure out what each exception is. The ioctl and handle_exit code have been re-factored and simplified. The handle_exit code in particular is all done with one handler which aside from watchpoints is supplying pretty much the same information for every exception. The HW debugging support has been improved by handling guest access to the debug register while debugging is happening. As a result a bunch of the review comments are no longer relevant as they applied to code that no longer exists. All the rest have been addressed as of this patch series. There are a few checkpatch violations for white space. Some in existing code (asm-offsets) and a couple in the handle_exit code where adding a whole extra tab seemed excessive. GIT Repos: The patches for this series are based off v4.0-rc6 and can be found at: https://git.linaro.org/people/alex.bennee/linux.git branch: guest-debug/4.0-rc6-v2 You can find the QEMU code that goes with this patch series at: https://github.com/stsquad/qemu branch: kvm/guest-debug-v2 Patch breakdown: The first 2 patches are simple clean-ups to rationalise some of the commentary and #defines. The next 2 introduce the API and implement the stub ioctl handler which is built up in later patches. The kvm_arch_setup/clear_debug() patch is a functional replacement for the previous manipulations of mdcr_el2 in hyp.S but making the value part of the VCPU context. The next 3 patches implement the various guest debug features. The penultimate patch could be merged with the one before but I kept it split apart for ease of review. The final patch may get dropped before up-streaming but it does provide useful trace points for anyone who want to track what is happening during guest debug.
