FEAT_IDST appeared in ARMv8.4, and allows ID registers to be trapped
if they are not implemented. This only concerns 3 registers (GMID_EL1,
CCSIDR2_EL1 and SMIDR_EL1), which are part of features that may not be
exposed to the guest even if present on the host.
For these registers, the HW should report them with EC=0x18, even if
the feature isn't implemented.
Add support for this feature by handling these registers in a specific
way and implementing GMID_EL1 support in the process. A very basic
selftest checks that these registers behave as expected.
Marc Zyngier (5):
KVM: arm64: Add routing/handling for GMID_EL1
KVM: arm64: Force trap of GMID_EL1 when the guest doesn't have MTE
KVM: arm64: Add a generic synchronous exception injection primitive
KVM: arm64: Report optional ID register traps with a 0x18 syndrome
KVM: arm64: selftests: Add a test for FEAT_IDST
