[PATCH v6 1/2] KVM: arm64: Support FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ in host handler
From: Per Larsen via B4 Relay
Date: Fri May 01 2026 - 01:35:09 EST
From: Sebastian Ene <sebastianene@xxxxxxxxxx>
Allow direct messages to be forwarded from the host. The host should
not be sending framework messages so they are filtered out.
