[PATCH v4 07/12] KVM: arm64: guest debug, add support for single-step

From: Alex BennÃe
Date: Fri May 15 2015 - 10:29:18 EST


This adds support for single-stepping the guest. To do this we need to
manipulate the guests PSTATE.SS and MDSCR_EL1.SS bits which we do in the
kvm_arm_setup/clear_debug() so we don't affect the apparent state of the
guest. Additionally while the host is debugging the guest we suppress
the ability of the guest to single-step itself.

---
v2
- Move pstate/mdscr manipulation into C
- don't export guest_debug to assembly
- add accessor for saved_debug regs
- tweak save/restore of mdscr_el1
v3
- don't save PC in debug information struct
- rename debug_saved_regs->guest_debug_state
- save whole value, only use bits in restore
- add save/restore_guest-debug_regs helper functions
- simplify commit message for clarity
- rm vcpu_debug_saved_reg access fn
v4
- added more comments based on suggestions
- guest_debug_state->guest_debug_preserved
- no point masking restore, we will trap out
