Subject: [PATCH v2 02/12] KVM: arm64: nv: Sync nested timer state with FEAT_NV2
Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2024 14:23:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241217142321.763801-3-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241217142321.763801-1-maz@kernel.org>

Emulating the timers with FEAT_NV2 is a bit odd, as the timers
can be reconfigured behind our back without the hypervisor even
noticing. In the VHE case, that's an actual regression in the
architecture...
