[PATCH v1 1/2] arm64: KVM: export the capability to set guest SError syndrome

From: Dongjiu Geng
Date: Thu May 31 2018 - 01:03:51 EST


For the arm64 RAS Extension, user space can inject a virtual-SError
with specified ESR. So user space needs to know whether KVM support
to inject such SError, this interface adds this query for this capability.

KVM will check whether system support RAS Extension, if supported, KVM
returns true to user space, otherwise returns false.

+This capability indicates that userspace can specify the syndrome value reported
+to the guest OS when guest takes a virtual SError interrupt exception.
+If KVM has this capability, userspace can only specify the ISS field for the ESR
+syndrome, it can not specify the EC field which is not under control by KVM.
+If this virtual SError is taken to EL1 using AArch64, this value will be reported
+in ISS filed of ESR_EL1.
