What does this mean for QEMU, though? If the issue is "KVM doesn't support the maintenance interrupt being anything other than INTID 25" then we should say so (and have our code error out if the board tries to use some other value). If the issue is "the *host* has to be using the right INTID" then I would hope that KVM simply doesn't expose the capability if the host h/w won't let it work correctly. If KVM can happily use any maintenance interrupt ID that the board model wants, then we should make that work, rather than hardcoding 25 into our gicv3 code. > diff --git a/hw/arm/virt.c b/hw/arm/virt.c > index b871350856..377181e009 100644 > --- a/hw/arm/virt.c > +++ b/hw/arm/virt.c > @@ -759,6 +759,11 @@ static void create_gic(VirtMachineState *vms, > MemoryRegion *mem) > qdev_prop_set_uint32(vms->gic, "redist-region-count[1]", > MIN(smp_cpus - redist0_count, redist1_capacity)); > } > + > + if (kvm_irqchip_in_kernel()) { > + qdev_prop_set_bit(vms->gic, "has-virtualization-extensions", > + vms->virt); > + } > } else { > if (!kvm_irqchip_in_kernel()) { > qdev_prop_set_bit(vms->gic, "has-virtualization-extensions", > diff --git a/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_common.c b/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_common.c > index 351843db4a..e2a6ff1b49 100644 > --- a/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_common.c > +++ b/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_common.c > @@ -563,6 +563,7 @@ static Property arm_gicv3_common_properties[] = { > DEFINE_PROP_UINT32("revision", GICv3State, revision, 3), > DEFINE_PROP_BOOL("has-lpi", GICv3State, lpi_enable, 0), > DEFINE_PROP_BOOL("has-security-extensions", GICv3State, security_extn, > 0), > + DEFINE_PROP_BOOL("has-virtualization-extensions", GICv3State, virt_extn, > 0), > /* > * Compatibility property: force 8 bits of physical priority, even > * if the CPU being emulated should have fewer. > diff --git a/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_kvm.c b/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_kvm.c > index 3ca643ecba..ce924753bb 100644 > --- a/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_kvm.c > +++ b/hw/intc/arm_gicv3_kvm.c > @@ -22,6 +22,7 @@ > #include "qemu/osdep.h" > #include "qapi/error.h" > #include "hw/intc/arm_gicv3_common.h" > +#include "hw/arm/virt.h" > #include "qemu/error-report.h" > #include "qemu/module.h" > #include "sysemu/kvm.h" > @@ -803,6 +804,30 @@ static void kvm_arm_gicv3_realize(DeviceState *dev, > Error **errp) > return; > } > > + > + if (s->virt_extn) { > + /* > + * Arm strongly recommends that maintenance interrupts are configured > + * to use INTID 25.

It seems to me that the straightforward way to do that is to have an integer QOM property on the GICv3 device like "maintenance-interrupt-id", and make the board code set it (whether using KVM or not). The TCG implementation doesn't care, and the KVM implementation can set it up in kvm_arm_gicv3_realize(). Then you don't need to specifically tell the GIC device that the guest is using the virtualization extensions. thanks -- PMM
