* kvm-arm64/smccc-filtering: : . : SMCCC call filtering and forwarding to userspace, courtesy of : Oliver Upton. From the cover letter: : : "The Arm SMCCC is rather prescriptive in regards to the allocation of : SMCCC function ID ranges. Many of the hypercall ranges have an : associated specification from Arm (FF-A, PSCI, SDEI, etc.) with some : room for vendor-specific implementations. : : The ever-expanding SMCCC surface leaves a lot of work within KVM for : providing new features. Furthermore, KVM implements its own : vendor-specific ABI, with little room for other implementations (like : Hyper-V, for example). Rather than cramming it all into the kernel we : should provide a way for userspace to handle hypercalls." : . KVM: selftests: Fix spelling mistake "KVM_HYPERCAL_EXIT_SMC" -> "KVM_HYPERCALL_EXIT_SMC" KVM: arm64: Test that SMC64 arch calls are reserved KVM: arm64: Prevent userspace from handling SMC64 arch range KVM: arm64: Expose SMC/HVC width to userspace KVM: selftests: Add test for SMCCC filter KVM: selftests: Add a helper for SMCCC calls with SMC instruction KVM: arm64: Let errors from SMCCC emulation to reach userspace KVM: arm64: Return NOT_SUPPORTED to guest for unknown PSCI version KVM: arm64: Introduce support for userspace SMCCC filtering KVM: arm64: Add support for KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL KVM: arm64: Use a maple tree to represent the SMCCC filter KVM: arm64: Refactor hvc filtering to support different actions KVM: arm64: Start handling SMCs from EL1 KVM: arm64: Rename SMC/HVC call handler to reflect reality KVM: arm64: Add vm fd device attribute accessors KVM: arm64: Add a helper to check if a VM has ran once KVM: x86: Redefine 'longmode' as a flag for KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
