[PATCH 0/7] arm64/boot: Enable EL2 requirements for FEAT_PMUv3p9

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

 



This series adds fine grained trap control in EL2 required for FEAT_PMUv3p9
registers like PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1 which are already
being used in the kernel. This is required to prevent their EL1 access trap
into EL2.

PMZR_EL0 register trap control i.e HDFGWTR2_EL2.nPMZR_EL0 remains unchanged
for now as it does not get accessed in the kernel, and there is no plan for
its access from user space.

I have taken the liberty to pick up all the review tags for patches related
to tools sysreg update from the KVM FGT2 V2 patch series posted earlier.

Rob had earler mentioned about FEAT_FGT2 based trap control requirement for
FEAT_PMUv3p9 registers that are currently being used in kernel. The context
can be found here.
