[PATCH 0/3] MSHV intercepts support on arm64

[Anirudh Raybharam]

From: Anirudh Rayabharam <anirudh at anirudhrb.com>

To receive hypervisor intercept interrupts on arm64 under MSHV, the parent
partition must allocate an interrupt in the SGI or PPI range and program it
into the SYNIC. Currently, Linux provides no mechanism for drivers to
dynamically allocate either SGIs or PPIs. SGIs are allocated exclusively by
the GIC driver for use by the SMP subsystem as IPIs, while PPIs must be
described in firmware (DT or ACPI), leaving the OS unable to allocate new
ones at runtime.

This series introduces support for MSHV by extending the GICv3 driver to
reserve one additional SGI specifically for use by the MSHV driver. The
reserved SGI is then used by the MSHV driver to program the SYNIC and
receive hypervisor intercept notifications.

This mechanism allows the MSHV driver to function correctly on arm64
without requiring firmware changes or altering the semantics of PPIs, while
keeping the SGI allocation model self-contained within the GIC driver.

  arm64: hyperv: move hyperv detection earlier in boot
  irqchip/gic-v3: allocate one SGI for MSHV
  mshv: add support for VMEXIT interrupts on aarch64
