* kvm-arm64/configurable-id-regs: : Configurable ID register infrastructure, courtesy of Jing Zhang : : Create generalized infrastructure for allowing userspace to select the : supported feature set for a VM, so long as the feature set is a subset : of what hardware + KVM allows. This does not add any new features that : are user-configurable, and instead focuses on the necessary refactoring : to enable future work. : : As a consequence of the series, feature asymmetry is now deliberately : disallowed for KVM. It is unlikely that VMMs ever configured VMs with : asymmetry, nor does it align with the kernel's overall stance that : features must be uniform across all cores in the system. : : Furthermore, KVM incorrectly advertised an IMP_DEF PMU to guests for : some time. Migrations from affected kernels was supported by explicitly : allowing such an ID register value from userspace, and forwarding that : along to the guest. KVM now allows an IMP_DEF PMU version to be restored : through the ID register interface, but reinterprets the user value as : not implemented (0). KVM: arm64: Rip out the vestiges of the 'old' ID register scheme KVM: arm64: Handle ID register reads using the VM-wide values KVM: arm64: Use generic sanitisation for ID_AA64PFR0_EL1 KVM: arm64: Use generic sanitisation for ID_(AA64)DFR0_EL1 KVM: arm64: Use arm64_ftr_bits to sanitise ID register writes KVM: arm64: Save ID registers' sanitized value per guest KVM: arm64: Reuse fields of sys_reg_desc for idreg KVM: arm64: Rewrite IMPDEF PMU version as NI KVM: arm64: Make vCPU feature flags consistent VM-wide KVM: arm64: Relax invariance of KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF KVM: arm64: Separate out feature sanitisation and initialisation Signed-off-by: Oliver Upton <oliver.upton@linux.dev>
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.
