Getting or setting such a register has the same - effect as reading or writing the register on real hardware, except for the - following registers: GICD_STATUSR, GICR_STATUSR, GICD_ISPENDR, - GICR_ISPENDR0, GICD_ICPENDR, and GICR_ICPENDR0. These registers behave - differently when accessed via this interface compared to their - architecturally defined behavior to allow software a full view of the - VGIC's internal state. - - The mpidr field is used to specify which - redistributor is accessed. The mpidr is ignored for the distributor. - - The mpidr encoding is based on the affinity information in the - architecture defined MPIDR, and the field is encoded as follows: - | 63 .... 56 | 55 .... 48 | 47 .... 40 | 39 .... 32 | - | Aff3 | Aff2 | Aff1 | Aff0 | - - Note that distributor fields are not banked, but return the same value - regardless of the mpidr used to access the register. - - GICD_IIDR.Revision is updated when the KVM implementation is changed in a - way directly observable by the guest or userspace. Userspace should read - GICD_IIDR from KVM and write back the read value to confirm its expected - behavior is aligned with the KVM implementation. Userspace should set - GICD_IIDR before setting any other registers to ensure the expected - behavior. - - - The GICD_STATUSR and GICR_STATUSR registers are architecturally defined such - that a write of a clear bit has no effect, whereas a write with a set bit - clears that value. To allow userspace to freely set the values of these two - registers, setting the attributes with the register offsets for these two - registers simply sets the non-reserved bits to the value written. - - - Accesses (reads and writes) to the GICD_ISPENDR register region and - GICR_ISPENDR0 registers get/set the value of the latched pending state for - the interrupts. - - This is identical to the value returned by a guest read from ISPENDR for an - edge triggered interrupt, but may differ for level triggered interrupts. - For edge triggered interrupts, once an interrupt becomes pending (whether - because of an edge detected on the input line or because of a guest write - to ISPENDR) this state is "latched", and only cleared when either the - interrupt is activated or when the guest writes to ICPENDR. A level - triggered interrupt may be pending either because the level input is held - high by a device, or because of a guest write to the ISPENDR register. Only - ISPENDR writes are latched; if the device lowers the line level then the - interrupt is no longer pending unless the guest also wrote to ISPENDR, and - conversely writes to ICPENDR or activations of the interrupt do not clear - the pending status if the line level is still being held high. (These - rules are documented in the GICv3 specification descriptions of the ICPENDR - and ISPENDR registers.) For a level triggered interrupt the value accessed - here is that of the latch which is set by ISPENDR and cleared by ICPENDR or - interrupt activation, whereas the value returned by a guest read from - ISPENDR is the logical OR of the latch value and the input line level. - - Raw access to the latch state is provided to userspace so that it can save - and restore the entire GIC internal state (which is defined by the - combination of the current input line level and the latch state, and cannot - be deduced from purely the line level and the value of the ISPENDR - registers). - - Accesses to GICD_ICPENDR register region and GICR_ICPENDR0 registers have - RAZ/WI semantics, meaning that reads always return 0 and writes are always - ignored. - - Errors: - -ENXIO: Getting or setting this register is not yet supported - -EBUSY: One or more VCPUs are running - - - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CPU_SYSREGS - Attributes: - The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values: - bits: | 63 .... 32 | 31 .... 16 | 15 .... 0 | - values: | mpidr | RES | instr | - - The mpidr field encodes the CPU ID based on the affinity information in the - architecture defined MPIDR, and the field is encoded as follows: - | 63 .... 56 | 55 .... 48 | 47 .... 40 | 39 .... 32 | - | Aff3 | Aff2 | Aff1 | Aff0 | - - The instr field encodes the system register to access based on the fields - defined in the A64 instruction set encoding for system register access - (RES means the bits are reserved for future use and should be zero): - - | 15 ... 14 | 13 ... 11 | 10 ... 7 | 6 ... 3 | 2 ... 0 | - | Op 0 | Op1 | CRn | CRm | Op2 | - - All system regs accessed through this API are (rw, 64-bit) and - kvm_device_attr.addr points to a __u64 value. - - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CPU_SYSREGS accesses the CPU interface registers for the - CPU specified by the mpidr field. - - CPU interface registers access is not implemented for AArch32 mode. - Error -ENXIO is returned when accessed in AArch32 mode. - Errors: - -ENXIO: Getting or setting this register is not yet supported - -EBUSY: VCPU is running - -EINVAL: Invalid mpidr or register value supplied - - - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_NR_IRQS - Attributes: - A value describing the number of interrupts (SGI, PPI and SPI) for - this GIC instance, ranging from 64 to 1024, in increments of 32. - - kvm_device_attr.addr points to a __u32 value. - - Errors: - -EINVAL: Value set is out of the expected range - -EBUSY: Value has already be set. - - - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL - Attributes: - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT - request the initialization of the VGIC, no additional parameter in - kvm_device_attr.addr. - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_SAVE_PENDING_TABLES - save all LPI pending bits into guest RAM pending tables. - - The first kB of the pending table is not altered by this operation. - Errors: - -ENXIO: VGIC not properly configured as required prior to calling - this attribute - -ENODEV: no online VCPU - -ENOMEM: memory shortage when allocating vgic internal data - -EFAULT: Invalid guest ram access - -EBUSY: One or more VCPUS are running - - - KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_LEVEL_INFO - Attributes: - The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes the following values: - bits: | 63 .... 32 | 31 .... 10 | 9 .... 0 | - values: | mpidr | info | vINTID | - - The vINTID specifies which set of IRQs is reported on. - - The info field specifies which information userspace wants to get or set - using this interface.
