I also tried to port an untested version, but I think your version is
a tested one.
https://github.com/chenhuacai/linux/commit/e6596b0e45c80756794aba74ac086c5c0e0306eb

And I have some questions:
1, "user service" is not only for syscall, so you rename it?
2, Why 4.19 doesn't need something like "vcpu->run->hypercall.args[0]
= kvm_read_reg(vcpu, LOONGARCH_GPR_A0);"
3, I think my version about "vcpu->run->exit_reason =
KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL;" and "update_pc()" is a little better than yours,
so you can improve them.
After a second thought, update_pc() before return to user may be not
strictly right, since user VMM can dump registers including pc which is
advanced already.
Agree, and we can see how others do.


How about adding function kvm_complete_hypercall() like
kvm_complete_mmio_read(), such as:
kvm_complete_user_service() maybe better? Since the "classic
hypercall" doesn't come here.
sure, will do rename it with kvm_complete_user_service.


And we may also need to set vcpu->run->exit_reason for all cases,
which is done in my version.
By my understanding, exit_reason need be set only for RESUME_HOST.
it is unnecessary for RESUME_GUEST.

Hi, Bibo,

Is this patch trying to do the same thing as "LoongArch: add hypcall
to emulate syscall in kvm" in 4.19?
yes, it is to do so -:)

Some VMMs provides special hypercall service in usermode, KVM need
not handle the usermode hypercall service and pass it to VMM and
let VMM handle it.

Here new code KVM_HCALL_CODE_USER is added for user-mode hypercall
service, KVM loads all six registers to VMM.
