Here's another stab at enabling QEMU on systems with pathologically reduced IPA ranges such as the Apple M1 (original version at [1]). Eventually, we're able to run a KVM guest with more than just 3GB of RAM on a system with a 36bit IPA space, and at most 123 vCPUs. This series does a few things: - decouple the enabling of the highmem PCIe region from the highmem attribute - introduce a new attribute to control the enabling of the highmem GICv3 redistributors - correctly cap the PA range with highmem is off - generalise the highmem behaviour to any PA range - disable both highmem PCIe and GICv3 RDs when they are outside of the PA range This has been tested on an M1-based Mac-mini running Linux v5.15-rc3.
