The created -MPIC will act as the system interrupt controller, connecting to each -vcpu's interrupt inputs. - -Groups: - KVM_DEV_MPIC_GRP_MISC - Attributes: - KVM_DEV_MPIC_BASE_ADDR (rw, 64-bit) - Base address of the 256 KiB MPIC register space. Must be - naturally aligned. A value of zero disables the mapping. - Reset value is zero. - - KVM_DEV_MPIC_GRP_REGISTER (rw, 32-bit) - Access an MPIC register, as if the access were made from the guest. - "attr" is the byte offset into the MPIC register space. Accesses - must be 4-byte aligned. - - MSIs may be signaled by using this attribute group to write - to the relevant MSIIR. - - KVM_DEV_MPIC_GRP_IRQ_ACTIVE (rw, 32-bit) - IRQ input line for each standard openpic source. 0 is inactive and 1 - is active, regardless of interrupt sense. - - For edge-triggered interrupts: Writing 1 is considered an activating - edge, and writing 0 is ignored. Reading returns 1 if a previously - signaled edge has not been acknowledged, and 0 otherwise. - - "attr" is the IRQ number. IRQ numbers for standard sources are the - byte offset of the relevant IVPR from EIVPR0, divided by 32. - -IRQ Routing: - - The MPIC emulation supports IRQ routing. Only a single MPIC device can - be instantiated. Once that device has been created, it's available as - irqchip id 0. - - This irqchip 0 has 256 interrupt pins, which expose the interrupts in - the main array of interrupt sources (a.k.a. "SRC" interrupts). - - The numbering is the same as the MPIC device tree binding -- based on - the register offset from the beginning of the sources array, without - regard to any subdivisions in chip documentation such as "internal" - or "external" interrupts. - - Access to non-SRC interrupts is not implemented through IRQ routing mechanisms. |
