Hi,

I am trying to get msi/msi-x interrupt to work in QEMU for further device 
development.
I am testing with the hw/misc/edu.c device (have used lots of others too but 
this is the simples to use as an example).
The QEMU I am currently using is QEMU 8.2.0.

The edu.c file that I use is original, except that I have added printfs after 
msi_notify() and pci_set_irq() function calls to see when they are called.

Other parts of the QEMU are also original, except that I have uncommented 
#define DEBUG_UNASSIGNED from system/memory.c to see when something makes 
writes and reads to unassigned memory.

The QEMU startup is done with:

./qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt,gic-version=3 -cpu max -smp 2 -m 1G -nographic 
-kernel Image \
-append 'root=/dev/vda rw rootwait mem=1024M console=ttyAMA0,38400n8' \
-drive if=none,id=image,file=rootfs.ext4 \
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=image \
-device edu

(I have also tried with x86_64 and q35 machine type without luck).

The Linux version I use is Linux 6.4.16 and Buildroot 2023-08.2

The Kernel Module I use is originally
https://cirosantilli.com/linux-kernel-module-cheat#qemu-edu
with some minor modifications which are in
#if MSI_MSIX
and
#if IRQ_TEST
blocks

Here is the kernel module code:

When I start the QEMU: I see:

[  105.981893][  T100] config 3f 0
[  106.000821][  T100] dev->irq 18
[  106.002545][  T100]    raise irq
Unassigned mem write 0000000008090040 = 0x0
************************** edu: msi_notify done
[  106.045243][  T100]    raise irq done
[  106.077977][  T100] io 0 10000ed
[  106.116824][  T100] io 4 0


So it does the msi_notify but the write to GICv3 (address 0x8090040) is 
unassigned  even though
I assume edu.c has done all initializations correctly, has it?

When I log into QEMU: I can see:

#

So MSI is enabled on device and MSI interrupt handler can be seen in 
/proc/interrupts

Strangely the virtio MSI interrupts seems to go through...


What am I doing wrong, or is this a bug in QEMU?

Please help,
