Progress: * VIRT-241 [QEMU ISA Support for A-profile] - Looking into implementing some of the easier, smaller architecture features - Implemented ARMv8.1-VMID16 (16-bit VMID support), which is trivial for QEMU because it doesn't care much about VMIDs - Working on ARMv8.1-PMU and ARMv8.4-PMU: it turns out that we already have most of these extensions, so we just need to finish off some smaller pieces and fix one or two bugs. Sent out a patchset implementing these. - Found a bunch of ID-register related bugs in the process, which I have fixes for - Implemented the "mandatory from v8.2" ACTLR2 and HACTLR2 registers
* VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership] - code review: - series from Laurent fixing a long-standing issue with handling of realtime signals in our linux-user code - imx6 model patches to fix a watchdog device bug and add the watchdog to our imx6 boards - final few unreviewed patches in rth's "PAN, ATS1E1, UAO" series - respin of the json QAPI Sphinx conversion patchset; hopefully the first half of this is now uncontroversial cleanups that can go in while the second half gets code reviewed
