There is no code in this series to pass these fields to and from userspace, and also to save/restore U_CET, INT_SSP_TAB, PL0_SSP and PL3_SSP across context switches. In addition, PL1_SSP and PL2_SSP should be supported even if the guest doesn't use them. It makes sense to avoid intercepting them, but they should still be supported and switched (possibly only if nonzero). Am I missing something, for example a dependency on host CET support? If not, how was this series tested? Paolo
