can you document their behavior more specifically?  I assume they both
return 0 if HW assisted debugging is not supported and return the number
of implemented hardware registers otherwise?

How does this work on big.LITTLE systems where cores may have a different
number of implemented registers?

Hmmm, this comment could have been added when introducing the original
logic instead.  Also:

s/are/as/

I'm not sure the 'treating them as dirty' part of the comment is
helpful.  Perhaps you want something like:

  If the guest debug register state is dirty (the guest is actively
  accesing them), then we context-switch the registers in EL2.
  Otherwise, we trap-and-emulate all guest accesses to them.

again, don't you have to be careful to be in a non-preemptible section
here?

Can you always set the KDE bit?  What if you only want debug exceptions
from guest user mode?  Is that supported through the KVM interface
and/or GDB?

style: spaces around the '|' operator.

ok, I may be over-doing this, but you've sort of gotten me on the track
here; First typically implies that there's a Second, or subsequently, or
something like that here.

Also, regarding 'need to' vs. 'must', I found this a nice read:
http://www.kirkmahoney.com/blog/2008/02/must-vs-needs-to/

I think this comment would be more clear if it was written something
like:

  We are about to set the hw debug registers with values used to debug
  the VM.  Make a copy of the guest debug register state to preserve
  the guest's view of the debug register state.

you need spaces around all the '*' operators.


Instead of copying back and forth, could we just have a pointer on the
vcpu->arch struct to the debug regs struct that the EL2 code will
context-switch (if trapping is disabled) and then just shift the pointer
in C code instead of doing all this?

same style comment as above

> +		}

this is called on iteration of the run-loop, right?

it really seems excessive to do all this copying on every single
iteration.  I think it's cleaner if you have on piece of state on the
vcpu struct for the guest state, and one piece of state for guest
debugging, and for all emulation and userspace sync purposes you access
the guest state directly and you switch a pointer to the struct that
EL2 uses to save/restore the underlying hardware state.  Would that
work?

you should be able to greatly simplify this as well if you follow my
