Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: arm64: nv: Treat AMO as 1 when at EL2 and {E2H,TGE} = {1, 0}
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2025 09:46:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250918164632.410404-2-oliver.upton@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250918164632.410404-1-oliver.upton@linux.dev>

SErrors are not deliverable at EL2 when the effective value of
HCR_EL2.{TGE,AMO} = {0, 0}. This is bothersome to deal with in nested
as we need to use auxiliary pending state to track the pending vSError
since HCR_EL2.VSE has no mechanism for honoring the guest HCR. On top of
that, we have no way of making that auxiliary pending state visible in
ISR_EL1.

A defect against the architecture now allows an implementation to treat
HCR_EL2.AMO as 1 when HCR_EL2.{E2H,TGE} = {1, 0}. Let's do exactly that,
meaning SErrors are always deliverable at EL2 for the typical E2H=RES1
VM.
