[PATCH v1 0/6] Support writable CPU ID registers from userspace

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

 



This patchset refactors/adds code to support writable per guest CPU ID feature
registers. Part of the code/ideas are from [1].
No functional change is intended in this patchset. With the new CPU ID feature
registers infrastructure, only writtings of ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.[CSV2|CSV3],
ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVer and ID_DFR0_ELF.PerfMon are allowed as KVM does before.

Writable (Configurable) per guest CPU ID feature registers are useful for
creating/migrating guest on ARM CPUs with different kinds of features.
