The guest_code of sync_regs_test is assuming that the compiler will not touch %r11 outside the asm that increments it, which is a bit brittle. Instead, we can increment a variable and use a dummy asm to ensure the increment is not optimized away. However, we also need to use a callee-save register or the compiler will insert a save/restore around the vmexit, breaking the whole idea behind the test. (Yes, "if it ain't broken...", but I would like the test to be clean before it is copied into the upcoming s390 selftests). Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
