Given this handler may be called for any PQAP instruction sub-function,
I think the function doc should be more generic, providing:

* A general description of what the function does
* A description of each input parameter
* A description of the value returned. If the return value is a return
   code, the possible rc values can be enumerated with a description for
   of the reason each particular value may be returned.

Sorry, I do not understand what you want here.
Isn't it exactly what is done?

No, what you have provided is a description that includes details that
may not apply in the future. I'm thinking something more like this:

/*
 * handle_pqap
 *
 * @vcpu: the vcpu that executed the PQAP instruction
 *
 * Handles interception of the PQAP instruction. A specification
 * exception will be injected into the guest if the input parameters
 * to the PQAP instruction are not properly formatted.
 *
 * Returns zero if the PQAP instruction is handled successfully;
 * otherwise, returns an error.
 */


And don't you exactly say the opposite when you say that the description should be done by the embedded comments?

Not really, that was directed at only the two sentences preceding the
comment.




+static int handle_pqap(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
+{
+    struct ap_queue_status status = {};
+    unsigned long reg0;
+    int ret;
+    uint8_t fc;
+
+    /* Verify that the AP instruction are available */
+    if (!ap_instructions_available())
+        return -EOPNOTSUPP;
+    /* Verify that the guest is allowed to use AP instructions */
+    if (!(vcpu->arch.sie_block->eca & ECA_APIE))
+        return -EOPNOTSUPP;
+    /*
+     * The only possibly intercepted instructions when AP instructions are
+     * available for the guest are AQIC and TAPQ with the t bit set
+     * since we do not set IC.3 (FIII) we currently will not intercept

+     * The following code will only treat AQIC function code.
+     */

Simplify to:

/* The only supported PQAP function is AQIC (0x03) */

OK, but then istn't obvious from reading the code ?

It's obvious that you are verifying the function code is
0x03, but only those familiar with the architecture will
know the is the AQIC function. Besides, I was merely modifying
the comment you already had. You can leave the comment out
if you prefer.



+    reg0 = vcpu->run->s.regs.gprs[0];
+    fc = reg0 >> 24;
+    if (fc != 0x03) {
+        pr_warn("%s: Unexpected interception code 0x%02x\n",
+            __func__, fc);

I would change the text to:
"Unexpected PQAP function code 0x%02x\n"

+        return -EOPNOTSUPP;
+    }
+    /* All PQAP instructions are allowed for guest kernel only */

There is only one PQAP instruction with multiple sub-functions.
/* PQAP instruction is allowed for guest kernel only */
                         or
/* PQAP instruction is privileged */

OK


+    if (vcpu->arch.sie_block->gpsw.mask & PSW_MASK_PSTATE)
+        return kvm_s390_inject_program_int(vcpu, PGM_PRIVILEGED_OP);
+    /*
+     * Common tests for PQAP instructions to generate a specification
+     * exception
+     */

This comment is unnecessary as the individual comments below adequately
do the job.

OK


+    /* Zero bits overwrite produce a specification exception */

This comment has no meaning unless you intimately know the architecture.
The following would make more sense:

     /* Bits 41-47 must all be zeros */

It's probably not a big deal, but since we don't support PQAP(TAPQ),
would it make more sense to make sure bits 40-47 are zeros (i.e.,
the 't' bit is not set)?

I am not sure about this one as APFT is installed in our case.
Or do you want that we test if it is installed and test the bit 40?

We should discuss this offline because I do not find any evidence that we should really do this in the documentation.

I am okay with not checking bit 40, but I would change the comment as
suggested: /* Bits 41-47 must all be zeros */



+    if (reg0 & 0x007f0000UL)
+        goto specification_except;
+    /* If APXA is not installed APQN is limited */

Wouldn't it be better to state how the APQN is limited?
For example:

     /*
      * If APXA is not installed, then the maximum APID is
      * 63 (bits 48-49 of reg0 must be zero) and the maximum
      * APQI is 15 (bits 56-59 must be zero)
      */
OK

+    if (!(vcpu->kvm->arch.crypto.crycbd & 0x02))
+        if (reg0 & 0x000030f0UL)

If APXA is not installed, then bits 48-49 and 56-59 must all be
zeros. Shouldn't this mask be 0x0000c0f0UL?

You can better count than I do ;)
I will change this to c0f0.

...snip...



+    status.response_code = 0x01;
+    memcpy(&vcpu->run->s.regs.gprs[1], &status, sizeof(status));

hum,
I miss a
     kvm_s390_set_psw_cc(vcpu, 3);
here
and certainly wherever fault in the status response code are set.

Will be corrected in the next iteration.

Sounds good.



Thanks for the comments,
