I see.
Since pass IRQ_STATUS to ioapic need to change many functions, how about add a variable in rtc_status:
struct rtc_status {
      bool IRQ_STATUS
};

And set it in kvm_vm_ioctl():
case KVM_IRQ_LINE_STATUS:
	if(irq == RTC_GSI && ioapic)
		ioapic->rtc_status.IRQ_STATUS = true;

Best regards,
Yang
