Commit Message

Oliver Upton April 3, 2025, 11:16 p.m. UTC
The KVM PV ABI recently added a feature that allows the VM to discover
the set of physical CPU implementations, identified by a tuple of
{MIDR_EL1, REVIDR_EL1, AIDR_EL1}. Unlike other KVM PV features, the
expectation is that the VMM implements the hypercall instead of KVM as
it has the authoritative view of where the VM gets scheduled.

To do this the VMM needs to know the values of these registers on any
CPU in the system. While MIDR_EL1 and REVIDR_EL1 are already exposed,
AIDR_EL1 is not. Provide it in sysfs along with the other identification
registers.

Right, the existing ones are also marked with _el1 suffix as well.

Indeed, AIDR_EL1 should be available alongside the others.
