[PATCH v16 05/20] arm64: hyp/kvm: Extend hyp-stub API to allow function calls at EL2

Geoff Levand geoff at infradead.org
Thu Apr 14 14:21:36 PDT 2016


The existing arm64 hcall implementations are limited in that they only
allow for two distinct hcalls; with the x0 register either zero or not
zero.  Also, the API of the hyp-stub exception vector routines and the
KVM exception vector routines differ; hyp-stub uses a non-zero value in
x0 to implement __hyp_set_vectors, whereas KVM uses it to implement
kvm_call_hyp.

To allow for additional hcalls to be defined and to make the arm64 hcall
API more consistent across exception vector routines, change the hcall
implementations to reserve all x0 values below PAGE_SIZE for hcalls such
as {s,g}et_vectors().

Define two new preprocessor macros HVC_GET_VECTORS, and HVC_SET_VECTORS
to be used as hcall type specifiers and convert the existing
__hyp_get_vectors() and __hyp_set_vectors() routines to use these new
macros when executing an HVC call.  Also, change the corresponding
hyp-stub and KVM el1_sync exception vector routines to use these new
macros.

[Merged two hcall patches, moved immediate value from esr to x0, use lr
 as a scratch register]
