[PATCH v4 4/9] KVM: arm64: Handle FEAT_IDST for sysregs without specific handlers

Thu Jan 8 09:32:28 PST 2026


Add a bit of infrastrtcture to triage_sysreg_trap() to handle the
case of registers falling into the Feature ID space that do not
have a local handler.

For these, we can directly apply the FEAT_IDST semantics and inject
an EC=0x18 exception. Otherwise, an UNDEF will do.
