[RFC PATCH] ARM: KVM: vgic: Bump VGIC_NR_IRQS to 256

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The Versatile Express TC2 board, which we use as our main emulated
platform in QEMU, defines 160+32 == 192 interrupts, so limiting the
number of interrupts to 128 is not quite going to cut it for real board
emulation.

Note that this didn't use to be a problem because QEMU was buggy and
only defined 128 interrupts until recently.

  [ Sending this as an RFC, because I haven't convinced myself that
    this is even the right short-term fix.  On a longer-term we probably
    need a way for QEMU to tell the kernel how many IRQs it needs for a
    particular implementation of a CPU and a GIC, but on a shorter term
    we should at least support a real A15 configuration.  Note that this
    change increases the in-kernel memory consumption quite a bit,
    especially due to the irq-to-lr map, which could be reversed or
    turned into a hash table or list, at the sacrifice of some
    performance during world-switches to search the data structure. ]
