This is exactly what i have done in my kernel + qemu. I have added a new KVM capability
and then in qemu i do this:
--- cut ---
if (kvm_gsi_kernel_mapping()) {
struct kvm_msi msi;
msi.address_lo = (uint32_t)msg.address;
msi.address_hi = msg.address >> 32;
msi.data = le32_to_cpu(msg.data);
memset(msi.pad, 0, sizeof(msi.pad));
if (dev) {
msi.devid = (pci_bus_num(dev->bus) << 8) | dev->devfn;
msi.flags = KVM_MSI_VALID_DEVID;
} else {
msi.devid = 0;
msi.flags = 0;
}
return kvm_vm_ioctl(s, KVM_TRANSLATE_MSI, &msi);
}
--- cut ---
KVM_TRANSLATE_MSI returns an LPI number. This seemed to be the simplest and fastest thing
to do.
If someone is interested, i could prepare an RFC patch series for this, which would apply
on top of Andre's ITS implementation.
