Hi Ard,

The ISS encoding for an exception from a Data Abort has a WnR
bit[6] that indicates whether the Data Abort was caused by a
read or a write instruction. While there are several fields
in the encoding that are only valid if the ISV bit[24] is set,
WnR is not one of them, so we can read it unconditionally.

This fixes an issue I observed with UEFI running under QEMU/KVM using
NOR flash emulation and the upcoming KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM support,
where
NOR flash reads were mistaken for NOR flash writes, resulting in all
read
accesses to go through the MMIO emulation layer.

Nice catch. One thing though.
This is a case where code duplication has led to this glaring bug:
On both arm and arm64, kvm_emulate.h has code that implements this
correctly, just that we failed to use it. Blame me.
I think this should be rewritten entierely in mmu.c, with something
like this (fully untested, of course):
static bool kvm_is_write_fault(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
if (kvm_vcpu_trap_is_iabt(vcpu))
return false;
return kvm_vcpu_dabt_iswrite(vcpu);
}
Care to respin it?
Thanks,
M.
