[PATCH v2 0/3] KVM: selftests: arm64: Make use of sysreg defintions in get-reg-list

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

 



The system register definitions in the arm64 get-reg-list are all done
with directly specified magic numbers rather than using the definitions
we import from the main kernel.  This is error prone, and requires us to
audit the additions to get-reg-list separately to what we do when
specifying the registers for the main kernel.  Since Marc has indicated
that this isn't a deliberate or desired choice let's start using the
constants we have defined.

We first manually update the data used to filter registers based on ID
register fields to use a simplified macro that specifies the register
and ID field in a muc more compact fashion.  This is done first since
there is an error in the ID register field for the S1PIE registers.  We
then replace all the remaining named system register specifications with
use of the existing KVM_ARM64_SYS_REG() macro.

This is just a first step, there's a bunch more work we could be doing
here, the main thing being making use of the encodings in
arch/arm64/tools/sysreg to convert more of the registers (including
updating as more registers are converted to use the generator).
