[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 2/2] xen/arm: errata 766422: decode thumb store during data abort



From the errata document:

When a non-secure non-hypervisor memory operation instruction generates a
stage2 page table translation fault, a trap to the hypervisor will be triggered.
For an architecturally defined subset of instructions, the Hypervisor Syndrome
Register (HSR) will have the Instruction Syndrome Valid (ISV) bit set to 1âb1,
and the Rt field should reflect the source register (for stores) or destination
register for loads.
On Cortex-A15, for Thumb and ThumbEE stores, the Rt value may be incorrect
and should not be used, even if the ISV bit is set. All loads, and all ARM
instruction set loads and stores, will have the correct Rt value if the ISV
bit is set.

To avoid this issue, Xen needs to decode thumb store instruction and update
the transfer register.

    Changes in v3:
        - Use unlikely to check if the processor is affected by the errata
        - Move the decoder in another patch and use it
    Changes in v2:
        - Only decode the instruction on affected processor
        - Handle ARM 32-bit instruction in read_instruction
