Hypervisor Call causes an exception to EL2. Non-secure software executing at EL1 can use this instruction to call the hypervisor to request a service.
The HVC instruction is undefined:
On executing an HVC instruction, the PE records the exception as a Hypervisor Call exception in ESR_ELx, using the EC value 0x16, and the value of the immediate argument.
