Thinking about this some more, it is slightly more nuanced, KVM can always provide an API to inject SError, but it can only set the VSESR if the CPU has the RAS Extensions. Only offering the inject-SError API call if we can also set the VSESR looks a bit funny, but no-one has needed the no-ESR version so far. I still don't think we should let user-space make the 'RAS Extensions means VSESR' logical step. So my comments on this patch become: Don't read id registers directly, use cpus_have_cap() which handles features that differ across CPUs or were turned off at compile time. Please don't call this 'KVM_CAP_ARM_RAS_EXTENSION', if we are building an API to inject SError, call it that instead. Thanks, James
