PAL Virtualization Services
In order to support efficient handling of interruptions when PSR.vm was 1, a set of PAL
virtualization services is defined to allow certain high-frequency PAL functions to be
performed in a low-latency and low-overhead manner.
Upon successful completion of PAL_VP_INIT_ENV, the virtual base address of the PAL
virtualization services (VSA) is returned to the VMM. VMM can invoke PAL services by
branching to the defined offsets from the virtual base address. See
defined services. See
Section 11.11, “PAL Virtualization Services” on page 2:486
for
details on PAL virtualization services.
These PAL virtualization services will only make references to the PAL virtual
environment buffer. The VMM is required to maintain the ITR and DTR translations of
the PAL virtual environment buffer during any PAL virtualization service calls.
11.11.1 PAL Virtualization Service Invocation Convention
This section describes the required parameters applicable to all PAL Virtualization
Services. Additional parameters are listed in the description section of specific PAL
Virtualization Services. Architectural state not listed in this section is managed by the
VMM and can contain both VMM and/or virtual processor state. The architectural state
not listed is unchanged by PAL virtualization services.
The state of the processor on handing off to any PAL Virtualization Service is:
• GR24-31: Parameters for PAL virtualization services.
• BRs:
• BR0: Scratch, the VMM will use BR0 to specify the 64-bit host virtual address of
the PAL Virtualization Service being invoked.
• Predicates: The predicates are preserved by the PAL virtualization services.
• PSR State (see
for details):
• PSR.be, i, cpl, is, ss, db, tb, vm must be 0.
• PSR.dt, rt and it must be 1.
• All other values are don’t cares.
