    KVM: arm64: Allow userspace to change ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 · 78c4446b
    Shaoqin Huang authored
    Allow userspace to change the guest-visible value of the register with
    different way of handling:
    
      - Since the RAS and MPAM is not writable in the ID_AA64PFR0_EL1
        register, RAS_frac and MPAM_frac are also not writable in the
        ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 register.
    
      - The MTE is controlled by a separate UAPI (KVM_CAP_ARM_MTE) with an
        internal flag (KVM_ARCH_FLAG_MTE_ENABLED).
        So it's not writable.
    
      - For those fields which KVM doesn't know how to handle, they are not
        exposed to the guest (being disabled in the register read accessor),
        those fields value will always be 0.
        Those fields don't have a known behavior now, so don't advertise
        them to the userspace. Thus still not writable.
        Those fields include SME, RNDR_trap, NMI, GCS, THE, DF2, PFAR,
        MTE_frac, MTEX.
    
      - The BT, SSBS, CSV2_frac don't introduce any new registers which KVM
        doesn't know how to handle, they can be written without ill effect.
        So let them writable.
    
    Besides, we don't do the crosscheck in KVM about the CSV2_frac even if
    it depends on the value of CSV2, it should be made sure by the VMM
    instead of KVM.
