[PATCH v17 16/17] RISC-V: KVM: Document RISC-V specific parts of KVM API

Thu Apr 1 14:34:34 BST 2021


Document RISC-V specific parts of the KVM API, such as:
 - The interrupt numbers passed to the KVM_INTERRUPT ioctl.
 - The states supported by the KVM_{GET,SET}_MP_STATE ioctls.
 - The registers supported by the KVM_{GET,SET}_ONE_REG interface
   and the encoding of those register ids.
 - The exit reason KVM_EXIT_RISCV_SBI for SBI calls forwarded to
   userspace tool.
