2013-04-08hw: move headers to include/Paolo Bonzini
Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification. Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target. However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.

2013-03-22pseries: Move XICS initialization before cpu initializationDavid Gibson
Currently, the pseries machine initializes the cpus, then the XICS interrupt controller. However, to support the upcoming in-kernel XICS implementation we will need to initialize the irq controller before the vcpus. This patch makes the necesssary rearrangement. This means the xics init code can no longer auto-detect the number of cpus ("interrupt servers" in XICS terminology) and so we must pass that in explicitly from the platform code.

2012-12-14pseries: Use #define for XICS base irq numberBen Herrenschmidt
Currently the lowest "real" irq number for the XICS irq controller (as opposed to numbers reserved for IPIs and other special purposes) is hard coded as 16 in two places - in xics_system_init() and in spapr.c. As well as being generally bad practice, we're going to need to change this number soon to fit in with the in-kernel XICS implementation. This patch adds a #define for this number to avoid future breakage.

2012-10-04pseries: Remove XICS irq type enum typeDavid Gibson
Currently the XICS interrupt controller emulation uses a custom enum to specify whether a given interrupt is level-sensitive or message-triggered. This enum makes life awkward for saving the state, and isn't particularly useful since there are only two possibilities. This patch replaces the enum with a simple bool.

2012-08-15pseries: Rework irq assignment to avoid carrying qemu_irqs aroundAlexey Kardashevskiy
Currently, the interfaces in the pseries machine code for assignment and setup of interrupts pass around qemu_irq objects. That was done in an attempt not to be too closely linked to the specific XICS interrupt controller. However interactions with the device tree setup made that attempt rather futile, and XICS is part of the PAPR spec anyway, so this really just meant we had to carry both the qemu_irq pointers and the XICS irq numbers around. This mess will just get worse when we add upcoming PCI MSI support, since that will require tracking a bunch more interrupt. Therefore, this patch reworks the spapr code to just use XICS irq numbers (roughly equivalent to GSIs on x86) and only retrieve the qemu_irq pointers from the XICS code when we need them (a trivial lookup). This is a reworked and generalized version of an earlier spapr_pci specific patch from Alexey Kardashevskiy.

2012-03-15pseries: Add support for level interrupts to XICSDavid Gibson
The pseries "xics" interrupt controller, like most interrupt controllers can support both message (i.e. edge sensitive) interrupts and level sensitive interrupts, but it needs to know which are which. When I implemented the xics emulation for qemu, the only devices we supported were the PAPR virtual IO devices. These devices only use message interrupts, so they were the only ones I implemented in xics. Since then, however, we have added support for PCI devices, which use level sensitive interrupts. It turns out the message interrupt logic still actually works most of the time for these, but there are circumstances where we can lost interrupts due to the incorrect interrupt logic. This patch, therefore, implements the correct xics level-sensitive interrupt logic. The type of the interrupt is set when a device allocates a new xics interrupt.

2011-04-08pseries: Abolish envs arrayDavid Gibson
Currently the pseries machine init code builds up an array, envs, of CPUState pointers for all the cpus in the system. This is kind of pointless, given the generic code already has a perfectly good linked list of the cpus. In addition, there are a number of places which assume that the cpu's cpu_index field is equal to its index in this array. This is true in practice, because cpu_index values are just assigned sequentially, but it's conceptually incorrect and may not always be true. Therefore, this patch abolishes the envs array, and explicitly uses the generic cpu linked list and cpu_index values throughout.

2011-04-01Implement the PAPR (pSeries) virtualized interrupt controller (xics)David Gibson
PAPR defines an interrupt control architecture which is logically divided into ICS (Interrupt Control Presentation, each unit is responsible for presenting interrupts to a particular "interrupt server", i.e. CPU) and ICS (Interrupt Control Source, each unit responsible for one or more hardware interrupts as numbered globally across the system). All PAPR virtual IO devices expect to deliver interrupts via this mechanism. In Linux, this interrupt controller system is handled by the "xics" driver. On pSeries systems, access to the interrupt controller is virtualized via hypercalls and RTAS methods. However, the virtualized interface is very similar to the underlying interrupt controller hardware, and similar PICs exist un-virtualized in some other systems. This patch implements both the ICP and ICS sides of the PAPR interrupt controller. For now, only the hypercall virtualized interface is provided, however it would be relatively straightforward to graft an emulated register interface onto the underlying interrupt logic if we want to add a machine with a hardware ICS/ICP system in the future. There are some limitations in this implementation: it is assumed for now that only one instance of the ICS exists, although a full xics system can have several, each responsible for a different group of hardware irqs. ICP/ICS can handle both level-sensitve (LSI) and message signalled (MSI) interrupt inputs. For now, this implementation supports only MSI interrupts, since that is used by PAPR virtual IO devices.
