[PATCH 01/56] KVM: Documentation: Document arm64 core registers in detail

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@xxxxxxx>

Since the the sizes of individual members of the core arm64
registers vary, the list of register encodings that make sense is
not a simple linear sequence.

To clarify which encodings to use, this patch adds a brief list
to the documentation.
