Subject: [PATCH 05/16] KVM: arm64: selftests: Add protected-VM boot trampoline
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2026 08:48:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104084842.132944-6-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104084842.132944-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>

EL2 takes only PC and X0 from the host when it boots a protected vCPU,
and resets everything else. So the registers the selftest library sets
before the first run never reach the guest.

Boot a protected guest through a trampoline that restores X0-X7, seven
EL1 system registers and the stack pointer from a block X0 points to,
then enables the MMU and branches to the guest's entry point.
