We seem to already have code for handling invariant registers as well as
reading ID register. I guess the only reason you can't use them is because
of the check the vcpu is using SVE.
However, AFAICT the restrictions callback would prevent you to enter the
{get, set}_id if the vCPU does not support SVE. So the check should not be
reachable.
Hmmm, those checks were inherited from before this refactoring.
You're right: the checks are now done a common place, so the checks in
the actual accessors should be redundant.
I could demote them to WARN(), but it may make sense simply to delete
them.
I think removing the WARN() would be best as it would avoid to introduce
most of the wrappers for the registers.
The access_id_aa64zfr0_el1() should still be reachable, since we don't
have REG_NO_GUEST for this.
__access_id_reg is taking a boolean to tell whether the register is RAZ
or not. So you probably could re-use it passing !vcpu_has_sve(vcpu).
It feels to me we would introduce a new restriction to tell whether the
register should be RAZ. Anyway, the new restriction is probably for a
follow-up patch.
