This would alleviate this very description. restoring RDIST regs require a previous GICV3 KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT and KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR I think. So description here would become " a) restore all guest memory and create vcpus b) restore all redistributors c) initialize the ITS and then provide its base address (KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT, KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR) c) restore the ITS in the following order: 1. Restore GITS_CBASER 2. Restore all other GITS_ registers, except GITS_CTLR! 3. Load the ITS table data (KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_RESTORE_TABLES) 4. Restore GITS_CTLR Then vcpus can be started.
