Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: arm64: sefltests: Add helpers for guest hypervisors
Date: Sun, 12 Apr 2026 15:22:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260412142216.3806482-3-weilin.chang@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260412142216.3806482-1-weilin.chang@arm.com>
Add helpers so that guest hypervisors can run nested guests. SP_EL1
save/restore is added to allow nested guests to use a stack.
Signed-off-by: Wei-Lin Chang <weilin.chang@arm.com>
