Hi Arm mantainers/Folks,

Hello,

Hi Julien,

Appreciate your help as always. :)


Please refer to the discussion https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/pull/51163 .

We intend to run Zephyr as a domU guest on Xen on Aarch32_v8R fixed virtual platform.

Zephyr is trying to read GICR_TYPER which is a 64 bit register using ldrd instruction.

As GICR is emulated by Xen, so this instruction gets trapped with HSR = 0x9200000c.

As ISV is 0, so Xen cannot emulate this instruction.

The proposed solution is to use two sys_read32() on GICR_TYPER to return the lower and upper 32 bits.

With this, HSR = 0x9383 000c, ISV=1 so ISS is valid.

Now, for Xen to emulate this read, I have proposed the modifications (in my last comment).

I am confused. Looking at the emulation of GICR_TYPER in Xen (arch/arm/vgic-v3.c), the code should already be able to handle 32-bit access.

When I compile Xen for arm32, vreg_reg64_extract() definitions do not exist.

The reason being https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=blob;f=xen/arch/arm/include/asm/vreg.h;h=f26a70d024e2d1f933ea66793ea6e42f81c7a8cf;hb=9029bc265cdf2bd63376dde9fdd91db4ce9c0586#l189 , BITS_PER_LONG is 32 (Refer xen/arch/arm/include/asm/config.h).

.Thus, the guest need to invoke sys_read32() twice (GICR_TYPER and GICR_TYPER+4).



I doesn't look like we need to modify Xen. What did I miss?

Cheers,
