Subject: [PATCH v2 10/28] KVM: arm64: Relax CNTHCTL_EL2 handling when FEAT_NV2p1 is present
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2026 10:16:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260714091641.1970822-11-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260714091641.1970822-1-maz@kernel.org>
With NV2p1, it is no longer necessary to use the split approach
where bits of CNTHCTL_EL2 cannot be accessed via CNTKCTL_EL1,
and we can treat the CNTKCTL_EL1 accessor as if it was "normal".
Key the special casing on FEAT_NV2P1 not being implemented.
