I don't think above will be correct. The way I read
it the following hypothetical instructions sequence

mcrr    p15, 0, r6, r7, c2    @ TTBR 0
mcr    p15, 0, r6, c2, c0, 0 @ 32bit TTBR 0

will get TTBR 0 high word to 0, when mrc instruction executes, but
it should be left unchanged in case of 'p->is_32bit'

How about something like following? Is it move into right direction?

Subject: [PATCH] ARM64: KVM: fix big endian issue in access_vm_reg for 32bit
 guest

Fix issue with 32bit guests running on top of BE KVM host.
Indexes of high and low words of 64bit cp15 register are
swapped in case of big endian code, since 64bit cp15 state is
restored or saved with double word write or read instruction.

Define helper macros to access high low words of 64bit cp15
register.

This is definitely much better than the original patch.

What I was thinking is to avoid packing 64-bit values as two 32-bit
values, so for example having two separate arrays on the kvm_cpu_context
struct, one for 32-bit coprocessor registers and one for 64-bit
coprocessor registers.

That would sort of follow Benjamin Herrenschmidt's manatra about always
using the correctly typed values everywhere to avoid endianness issues.

Did you look at that approach?  Does it blow up?

They cannot be separate it is the same data with two ways
to access: as 64bit value or low word 32bit value. Typically it is LPAE
cp15 memory related registers like TTBR0, as in mcrr, mcr example
in my previous response. mcrr will update high and low word values
of TTBR0, mcr will update only low word of it.

You just have to decide whether you want to represent a 64-bit register as
a concatenation of two u32's or a 32-bit register access as a part
of the 64-bit register value.

I think the architecture, at least for 32-bit register views on ARMv8,
defines the 32-bit accesses as a view on the 64-bit register.

You should of course only store those registers once, but instead of
storing them in an array of u32's you could store the 64-bit wide
registers in a separate array of u64's.  32-bit accesses to those
registers would look in the array of u64's for such a value.

I didn't try it out, so not sure how it looks like, just saying it's an
option worth considering.

Indeed, and that's how KVM implements it.

I think that's the best idea so far. If the access is 64bit, use the
64bit version of the union (going through the corresponding
vcpu_sys_reg() interface).

This should be a very minimal refactor.
