Subject: [PATCH 03/15] arm64: Add new hcall HVC_CALL_FUNC
Date: Fri, 06 Nov 2015 19:14:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1bfd1af4061513bc07c38a778f1602bf4abe1e43.1446836442.git.geoff@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1446836442.git.geoff@infradead.org>

Add the new hcall HVC_CALL_FUNC that allows execution of a function at EL2.
During CPU reset the CPU must be brought to the exception level it had on
entry to the kernel.  The HVC_CALL_FUNC hcall will provide the mechanism
needed for this exception level switch.

To allow the HVC_CALL_FUNC exception vector to work without a stack, which is
needed to support an hcall at CPU reset, this implementation uses register x18
to store the link register across the caller provided function.  This dictates
that the caller provided function must preserve the contents of register x18.
