Yes, we can. Currently, 2 different errno(EOPNOTSUPP/EINVAL) would be
reported for the rejected registers in risc-v.
These 2 errnos can be handled specially like below:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/get-reg-list.c
b/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/get-reg-list.c
index 73f40e0842b8..f3f2c4519318 100644
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/get-reg-list.c
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/get-reg-list.c
@@ -255,6 +255,15 @@ static void run_test(struct vcpu_reg_list *c)
putchar('\n');
++failed_reject;
}
+ } else {
+ ret = __vcpu_ioctl(vcpu,
KVM_SET_ONE_REG, &reg);
+ if (ret != -1 || (errno !=
EINVAL && errno != EOPNOTSUPP)) {
+ printf("%s: Failed to
reject (ret=%d, errno=%d) ",
+
config_name(c), ret, errno);
+
print_reg(config_name(c), reg.id);
+ putchar('\n');
+ ++failed_reject;
+ }

One possible issue for the above change is that when new registers
that don't support sets were added, we need
to add them to the reject registers list, or the test would fail.

Initially, in the v1 patch, the design was to just skip the EOPNOTSUPP
errno in set operations for all registers
since it's a known errno for registers that don't support sets. This
change cover all the registers even for future
new ones.

What's your opinion?
