[PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: arm64: writable MIDR/REVIDR

Posted by Sebastian Ott 12 months ago

Based on prior discussion [1] this series allows VMMs to change
MIDR/REVIDR to enable migration between machines that differ in
these registers. Since these are used for errata handling the
errata management series [2] is a prerequisite for this one.

changes for V2:
* let the guest actually observe the changed MIDR_EL1 value
* extra .set_user function
* added selftest
