Hi, shenming


I got few questions about this patch.

Although it's a bit late and not very appropriate, I'd like to ask 
before you send next version.

I checked the invoking scenario of irq_get_irqchip_state and found no 
scenario related to vLPI.

For example, synchronize_irq(), it pass IRQCHIP_STATE_ACTIVE to which, 
so in your patch, you will directly return and other is for vSGI, 
GICD_ISPENDR, GICD_ICPENDR and so on.

The only one I am not sure is vgic_get_phys_line_level(), is it your 
purpose to fill this callback, or some scenarios I don't know about that 
use this callback.

How can you confirm that the interrupt pending status is the latest? Is 
it possible that the interrupt pending status is still cached in the 
GICR but not synchronized to the memory.


Thanks
