Cortex-A510's erratum #2077057 causes SPSR_EL2 to be corrupted when single-stepping authenticated ERET instructions. A single step is expected, but a pointer authentication trap is taken instead. The erratum causes SPSR_EL1 to be copied to SPSR_EL2, which could allow EL1 to cause a return to EL2 with a guest controlled ELR_EL2. Because the conditions require an ERET into active-not-pending state, this is only a problem for the EL2 when EL2 is stepping EL1. In this case the previous SPSR_EL2 value is preserved in struct kvm_vcpu, and can be restored.

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.
