Hi all,
After merging the kvm tree, today's linux-next build (arm64 defconfig)
failed like this:
In file included from <command-line>:
In function 'check_res_bits',
inlined from 'kvm_sys_reg_table_init' at arch/arm64/kvm/sys_regs.c:4109:2:

I bisected this to the merge of the kvm-arm tree into linux-next but I
could not figure out why it fails :-(

This fails because https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux.git/commit/?id=fdd867fe9b32
added new fields to that register (ID_AA64DFR1_EL1)
and commit b80b701d5a6 ("KVM: arm64: Snapshot all non-zero RES0/RES1 sysreg fields for later checking")
took a snapshot of the fields, so the RES0 (reserved 0) bits don't match anymore.
Not sure how to resolve it in the git branches though.
Thanks,
Joey

Thanks. I will apply this patch to the merge of the kvm-arm tree from
tomorrow (and at the end of today's tree).

Marc, Iliver, can you get a topic branch from Catalin and friends for
this sysreg patch, and apply the fixup directly to the kvm-arm branch in
the merge commit?
Not _necessary_, as I can always ask Linus to do the fixup, but
generally he prefers to have this sorted out by the maintainers if it is
detected by linux-next.

I think that's not the correct thing to do at this time. I should have
timed the introduction of these checks a bit later, after the merge
window.
But more to the point, the proposed patch is also not the best thing
to merge, because it hides that there is a discrepancy between what
the architecture describes, and what KVM knows. I really want to know
about it, or it will be yet another bug that we wont detect easily.
Specially for ID_AA64DFR*_EL1 which are a bloody mine-field.
So I'd rather we make the check optional, and we'll play catch up for
a bit longer. Something like the patch below.
Oliver, do you mind queuing this ASAP (also pushed out to my dev
branch)?
Thanks,
M.

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: arm64: Make build-time check of RES0/RES1 bits optional
In order to ease the transition towards a state of absolute
paranoia where all RES0/RES1 bits gets checked against what
KVM know of them, make the checks optional and garded by a
config symbol (CONFIG_KVM_ARM64_RES_BITS_PARANOIA) default to n.
