From: Christoffer Dall <christoffer.dall@xxxxxxxxxx>
Factor out the GICv3-specific documentation into a separate
documentation file. Add description for how to access distributor,
redistributor, and CPU interface registers for GICv3 in this new file.

+ARM Virtual Generic Interrupt Controller v3 and later (VGICv3)
+==============================================================
+
+
+Device types supported:
+ KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3 ARM Generic Interrupt Controller v3.0
+
+Only one VGIC instance may be instantiated through this 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. It is not
+possible to create both a GICv3 and GICv2 on the same VM.
+
+Creating a guest GICv3 device requires a host GICv3 as well.
+
+Groups:
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR
+ Attributes:
+ KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_DIST (rw, 64-bit)
+ Base address in the guest physical address space of the GICv3 distributor
+ register mappings. Only valid for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3.
+ This address needs to be 64K aligned and the region covers 64 KByte.
+
+ KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST (rw, 64-bit)
+ Base address in the guest physical address space of the GICv3
+ redistributor register mappings. There are two 64K pages for each
+ VCPU and all of the redistributor pages are contiguous.
+ Only valid for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3.
+ This address needs to be 64K aligned.
+
+
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_REDIST_REGS
+ Attributes:
+ The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values:
+ bits: | 63 .... 32 | 31 .... 0 |
+ values: | mpidr | offset |
+
+ All distributor regs are (rw, 64-bit).
+
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS accesses the main distributor registers.
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_REDIST_REGS accesses the redistributor of the CPU
+ specified by the mpidr.
+
+ The offset is relative to the "[Re]Distributor base address" as defined
+ in the GICv3/4 specs. Getting or setting such a register has the same
+ effect as reading or writing the register on real hardware, and 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.
+ Limitations:
+ - Priorities are not implemented, and registers are RAZ/WI
+ Errors:
+ -ENXIO: Getting or setting this register is not yet supported
+ -EBUSY: One or more VCPUs are running
+
+
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_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 |
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_SYSREG() macro is provided for building register ID.
+
+ 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).
+
+ KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CPU_SYSREGS accesses the CPU interface registers for the
+ CPU specified by the mpidr field.
+
+
+ Limitations:
+ - Priorities are not implemented, and registers are RAZ/WI
+ Errors:
+ -ENXIO: Getting or setting this register is not yet supported
+ -EBUSY: VCPU is running
+ -EINVAL: Invalid mpidr 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.
+
+
+ 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.
+ 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
