[Xen-devel] [PATCH v8 11/11] public: add and enable XENFEAT_ARM_SMCCC_supported feature

[Volodymyr Babchuk <volodymyr_babchuk@xxxxxxxx>]

This feature indicates that hypervisor is compatible with ARM
SMC calling convention. Previously hypervisor would inject an
undefined instruction exception if an invalid SMC function were
called or would crash a domain if an invalid HVC function
were invoked.
XENFEAT_ARM_SMCCC_supported feature means that it safe to invoke
SMC/HVC calls that are compatible with SMC calling convention.
