For KVM RISC-V, we use KVM_GET_ONE_REG/KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctls to access VCPU config and registers from user-space. We have three types of VCPU registers: 1. CONFIG - these are VCPU config and capabilities 2. CORE - these are VCPU general purpose registers 3. CSR - these are VCPU control and status registers The CONFIG register available to user-space is ISA. The ISA register is a read and write register where user-space can only write the desired VCPU ISA capabilities before running the VCPU. The CORE registers available to user-space are PC, RA, SP, GP, TP, A0-A7, T0-T6, S0-S11 and MODE. Most of these are RISC-V general registers except PC and MODE. The PC register represents program counter whereas the MODE register represent VCPU privilege mode (i.e. S/U-mode). The CSRs available to user-space are SSTATUS, SIE, STVEC, SSCRATCH, SEPC, SCAUSE, STVAL, SIP, and SATP. All of these are read/write registers. In future, more VCPU register types will be added (such as FP) for the KVM_GET_ONE_REG/KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctls.

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.
