Or should this > test read as "highest_el_is_32bit" ? There are multiple things at play here: - MODE_EL2x is not a valid 32bit mode - The architecture forbids nested virt with 32bit EL2 The code above is a simplification of these two conditions. But certainly we can do a bit better, as kvm_reset_cpu() doesn't really check that we don't create a vcpu with both 32bit+NV. These two bits should really be exclusive. M. -- Jazz is not dead.
