So far we have been getting away with letting the kernel choosing interrupt numbers for the timers in the kernel and we have crossed our fingers in hoping that the DT/ACPI provided by userspace matches with the interrupt number we use in the kernel for a given VCPU type. But as we are generally moving towards letting userspace be in more fine grained control of what is being emulated, let userspace decide the irq numbers for the timers. Slightly related, and therefore included in this series, we have recently added support for a userspace GIC while still supporting the generic timers and the PMU from inside the VM. Unfortunately we forgot to rework the code to actually let userspace create the PMU device without creating an in-kernel GIC. Patches 6-9 could be omitted and still support the basic functionality targeted by this series if preferred. Tested on APM X-Gene, Thunder-X, and TC2. QEMU patches used for testing can be found here: https://git.linaro.org/people/christoffer.dall/qemu-arm.git timer-pmu-irqs Changes since v1: - Rebased on v4.12-rc1 - Check for irqchip_in_kernel() in kvm_arm_pmu_v3_get_attr - Slightly change the wording around default timer IRQs - Add fix for the PMU IRQ setting that assumes an initialized vgic - Introduce an allocator for IRQ lines so that in-kernel owned IRQ lines cannot be signalled from userspace and such that an IRQ line can only be assigned to a single device.
