==================================================
ARM Virtual Generic Interrupt Controller v2 (VGIC)
==================================================
Device types supported:
- KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V2 ARM Generic Interrupt Controller v2.0
Only one VGIC instance may be instantiated through either this API or the
legacy KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP API. The created VGIC will act as the VM interrupt
controller, requiring emulated user-space devices to inject interrupts to the
VGIC instead of directly to CPUs.
GICv3 implementations with hardware compatibility support allow creating a
guest GICv2 through this interface. For information on creating a guest GICv3
device and guest ITS devices, see arm-vgic-v3.txt. It is not possible to
create both a GICv3 and GICv2 device on the same VM.
Groups:
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR
Attributes:
KVM_VGIC_V2_ADDR_TYPE_DIST (rw, 64-bit)
Base address in the guest physical address space of the GIC distributor
register mappings. Only valid for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V2.
This address needs to be 4K aligned and the region covers 4 KByte.
KVM_VGIC_V2_ADDR_TYPE_CPU (rw, 64-bit)
Base address in the guest physical address space of the GIC virtual cpu
interface register mappings. Only valid for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V2.
This address needs to be 4K aligned and the region covers 4 KByte.
Errors:
======= =============================================================
-E2BIG Address outside of addressable IPA range
-EINVAL Incorrectly aligned address
-EEXIST Address already configured
-ENXIO The group or attribute is unknown/unsupported for this device
or hardware support is missing.
-EFAULT Invalid user pointer for attr->addr.
======= =============================================================
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS
Attributes:
The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values::
bits: | 63 .... 40 | 39 .. 32 | 31 .... 0 |
values: | reserved | vcpu_index | offset |
All distributor regs are (rw, 32-bit)
The offset is relative to the "Distributor base address" as defined in the
GICv2 specs. Getting or setting such a register has the same effect as
reading or writing the register on the actual hardware from the cpu whose
index is specified with the vcpu_index field. Note that most distributor
fields are not banked, but return the same value regardless of the
vcpu_index used to access the register.
GICD_IIDR.Revision is updated when the KVM implementation of an emulated
GICv2 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 (both
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS and KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CPU_REGS) to ensure
the expected behavior. Unless GICD_IIDR has been set from userspace, writes
to the interrupt group registers (GICD_IGROUPR) are ignored.
Errors:
======= =====================================================
-ENXIO Getting or setting this register is not yet supported
-EBUSY One or more VCPUs are running
-EINVAL Invalid vcpu_index supplied
======= =====================================================
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CPU_REGS
Attributes:
The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values::
bits: | 63 .... 40 | 39 .. 32 | 31 .... 0 |
values: | reserved | vcpu_index | offset |
All CPU interface regs are (rw, 32-bit)
The offset specifies the offset from the "CPU interface base address" as
defined in the GICv2 specs. Getting or setting such a register has the
same effect as reading or writing the register on the actual hardware.
The Active Priorities Registers APRn are implementation defined, so we set a
fixed format for our implementation that fits with the model of a "GICv2
implementation without the security extensions" which we present to the
guest. This interface always exposes four register APR[0-3] describing the
maximum possible 128 preemption levels. The semantics of the register
indicate if any interrupts in a given preemption level are in the active
state by setting the corresponding bit.
Thus, preemption level X has one or more active interrupts if and only if:
APRn[X mod 32] == 0b1, where n = X / 32
Bits for undefined preemption levels are RAZ/WI.
Note that this differs from a CPU's view of the APRs on hardware in which
a GIC without the security extensions expose group 0 and group 1 active
priorities in separate register groups, whereas we show a combined view
similar to GICv2's GICH_APR.
For historical reasons and to provide ABI compatibility with userspace we
export the GICC_PMR register in the format of the GICH_VMCR.VMPriMask
field in the lower 5 bits of a word, meaning that userspace must always
use the lower 5 bits to communicate with the KVM device and must shift the
value left by 3 places to obtain the actual priority mask level.
Errors:
======= =====================================================
-ENXIO Getting or setting this register is not yet supported
-EBUSY One or more VCPUs are running
-EINVAL Invalid vcpu_index 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.
Errors:
======= =============================================================
-EINVAL Value set is out of the expected range
-EBUSY Value has already be set, or GIC has already been initialized
with default values.
======= =============================================================
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL
Attributes:
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT
request the initialization of the VGIC or ITS, no additional parameter
in kvm_device_attr.addr.
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
======= =========================================================
