Hi all,
I tested Linux-cca cca-host/v7 patch with our Internal simulator based on QEMU (with CCA and MPAM support).
A panic occurred when starting Realm, but I don't think this is a problem with the cca-host/v7 patch.
The location of the panic is [1].

}
There was no problem with the cca-host/v5 patch (based on v6.12).
This panic is caused by accessing MPAMIDR_EL1 when the chip supports MPAM.
This functionality was enabled when the cca host patch base version was rebased from v6.12 to v6.13.
I am not familiar with TF-A, but I think this maybe a TF-A's bug.
Because It seems TF-A sets MPAM3_EL3.TRAPLOWER to 0 during normal guest boot in manage_extensions_nonsecure_per_world function[2].
However, TF-A does not set it to 0 during Realm guest boot in manage_extensions_secure_per_world function.
Therefore, a trap occurs against EL3 (TF-A), and it is likely being processed as an invalid instruction (Undef).

> The related guest support was merged for v6.14-rc1 so you no longer need that

>
> There are several changes since v6, many thanks for the review comments. The

>
> * Return with -EFAULT error for KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT as per the

>
> * Return -EPERM rather than -EINVAL in cases where a realm function is
> performed on a non-realm guest.
>
> * Several improvements to names of functions/defines and other minor
> changes following review feedback - thanks!

> Things to note:
>
> * You will need an updated kvmtool because of the KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT

> * KVM_VCPU_MAX_FEATURES is incremented. *NOTE*: This effectively

> merged. See [2] for more details.
>
> * The final patch enables the host's page size to be larger than 4k.
> The support is all in the previous patches, but there is more work to

>
> - The code to allocate RTTs (stage 2 page tables) for the RMM still
> conflates pages and granules. This means that for every RTT an
> entire host page is allocated potentially using 16x the required
> memory for the RTTs.
>
> - Having the guest's page size smaller than the host's currently
> doesn't work. The issue is the guest needs to know what granulatity
> it can transition pages between shared and private. Exactly how
> this should work is an open area of discussion.
>
> - This configuration isn't well tested, I would be unsurprised if
> there are major bugs! ;) But a simple Linux guest of the same page
> size works.

> The ABI to the RMM (the RMI) is based on RMM v1.0-rel0 specification[1].
