To implement the get/set_irqchip_state callbacks (limited to the
PENDING state), we have to use a particular set of hacks:
- Reading the pending state is done by using a pair of new redistributor
registers (GICR_VSGIR, GICR_VSGIPENDR), which allow the 16 interrupts
state to be retrieved.
- Setting the pending state is done by generating it as we'd otherwise do
for a guest (writing to GITS_SGIR).
- Clearing the pending state is done by emitting a VSGI command with the
"clear" bit set.
This requires some interesting locking though:
- When talking to the redistributor, we must make sure that the VPE
affinity doesn't change, hence taking the VPE lock.
- At the same time, we must ensure that nobody accesses the same
redistributor's GICR_VSGIR registers for a different VPE, which
would corrupt the reading of the pending bits. We thus take the
per-RD spinlock. Much fun.
