Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] arm64: Add override for ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.LS64
Date: Sun, 25 Oct 2026 07:51:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261025075138.2919734-2-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261025075138.2919734-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>
Accesses to ACCDATA_EL1, which FEAT_LS64_ACCDATA adds, trap to EL3
unless firmware sets SCR_EL3.ADEn. Once KVM context-switches the
register for its guests, a host whose firmware leaves the bit clear
can't run them.
Add an override for ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1.LS64, with an arm64.nols64 alias,
so that the feature can be disabled on such a host and for its guests.
id_aa64isar1.ls64=2 disables only FEAT_LS64_ACCDATA and above.
