I just quickly reviewed the first two patches of the nVHE series, and I think the shape is a bit wrong. I can absolutely see the interest of preventing extra tracing when a guest is running, but the way this is currently plugged makes it hard to reason about it. > [0] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230804085219.260790-1-james.clark@arm.com I'll try to have a look at that one later.
