+4.23 KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP
+
+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Creates an interrupt controller model in the kernel. On x86, creates a virtual
+ioapic, a virtual PIC (two PICs, nested), and sets up future vcpus to have a
+local APIC. IRQ routing for GSIs 0-15 is set to both PIC and IOAPIC; GSI 16-23
+only go to the IOAPIC. On ia64, a IOSAPIC is created.
+
+4.24 KVM_IRQ_LINE
+
+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_irq_level
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Sets the level of a GSI input to the interrupt controller model in the kernel.
+Requires that an interrupt controller model has been previously created with
+KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP. Note that edge-triggered interrupts require the level
+to be set to 1 and then back to 0.

+
+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_irqchip (in/out)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Reads the state of a kernel interrupt controller created with
+KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP into a buffer provided by the caller.

+
+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_irqchip (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Sets the state of a kernel interrupt controller created with
