The bulk of this patch is about trap-and-emulating these ERR registers, but
that's not reflected in the title:

This depends on SCR_EL3.EA, which this patch doesn't touch and the normal-world
can't even know about. This is what your system does, the commit message should
be about the change to Linux.

This ARM64_HAS_RAS_EXTN isn't in mainline, nor is it added by your series. I
know where it comes from, but other reviewers may not. If you have dependencies
on another series, please call them out in the cover letter.

This is the first cpus_have_const_cap() user in this header file, it probably needs:
#include <asm/cpufeature.h>

We're emulating these as RAZ/WI, do we really need to allocate
vcpu->arch.ctxt.sys_regs space for them? If we always return 0 for ERRIDR, then
we don't need to keep ERRSELR as 'the value read back [..] is UNKNOWN'.

I think we only need space for these once their value needs to be migrated,
user-space doesn't need to know they exist until then.

As above, this register is read-only.

If we can get rid of the vcpu storage this just becomes trap_raz_wi() .

Same here.

The trick here is ERRIDR_EL1 is read only, KVM can choose how many records it
emulates. Let's pick zero:

Which lets us collapse this entire function down to trap_raz_wi().

I agree we will need this code once we need to allow user-space to populate
values for these registers. (and I bet no-one will want to do that until we get
kernel-first support)

Why can't we just make all these trap_raz_wi()?

I'll make these changes and then repost this as part of the RAS+IESB series it
depends on.

Thanks!
