This series illustrates an alternative approach to Eric Auger's direct EOI
setup patches [1] in terms of the KVM VGIC support.
The idea is to maintain existing semantics for the VGIC for mapped
level-triggered IRQs and think support for the timer into it.
Patch 1 is necessary to align the timer and VFIO ways of signaling the
VGIC. Patch 2 is stolen from Eric's series and is necessary for these
patches to compile as well. Patch 3 includes the core support for
mapped level-triggered interrupts. Patch 4 handles guest MMIO access to
the virtual distributor. Patch 5 moves some code around for patch 6.
Patch 6 implements an optimization for the timer. The last two patches
could be deferred until the timer optimization series.
Based on v4.13
Changes since v2:
- Removed patch 5 from v2 and integrating the changes in what's now
patch 5 to make it easier to reuse code when adding VFIO integration.
- Changed the virtual distributor MMIO handling to use the
pending_latch and more closely match the semantics of SPENDR and
CPENDR for both level and edge mapped interrupts.
Changes since v1:
- Added necessary changes to the timer (Patch 1)
- Added handling of guest MMIO accesses to the virtual distributor
(Patch 4)
- Addressed Marc's comments from the initial RFC (mostly renames)
Thanks,
-Christoffer
