User space defines the model to emulate to a guest and should therefore
decide which addresses are used for both the virtual CPU interface
directly mapped in the guest physical address space and for the emulated
distributor interface, which is mapped in software by the in-kernel VGIC
support.

On ARM some bits are specific to the model being emulated for the guest and
user space needs a way to tell the kernel about those bits. An example is mmio
device base addresses, where KVM must know the base address for a given device
to properly emulate mmio accesses within a certain address range or directly
map a device with virtualiation extensions into the guest address space.
We make this API ARM-specific as we haven't yet reached a consensus for a
generic API for all KVM architectures that will allow us to do something like
this.

Implement the PSCI specification (ARM DEN 0022A) to control
virtual CPUs being "powered" on or off.
PSCI/KVM is detected using the KVM_CAP_ARM_PSCI capability.
A virtual CPU can now be initialized in a "powered off" state,
using the KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF feature flag.
The guest can use either SMC or HVC to execute a PSCI function.

The Cache Size Selection Register (CSSELR) selects the current Cache
Size ID Register (CCSIDR). You write which cache you are interested
in to CSSELR, and read the information out of CCSIDR.
Which cache numbers are valid is known by reading the Cache Level ID
Register (CLIDR).
To export this state to userspace, we add a KVM_REG_ARM_DEMUX
numberspace (17), which uses 8 bits to represent which register is
being demultiplexed (0 for CCSIDR), and the lower 8 bits to represent
this demultiplexing (in our case, the CSSELR value, which is 4 bits).

All interrupt injection is now based on the VM ioctl KVM_IRQ_LINE. This
works semantically well for the GIC as we in fact raise/lower a line on
a machine component (the gic). The IOCTL uses the follwing struct.
struct kvm_irq_level {
union {
__u32 irq; /* GSI */
__s32 status; /* not used for KVM_IRQ_LEVEL */
};
__u32 level; /* 0 or 1 */
};
ARM can signal an interrupt either at the CPU level, or at the in-kernel irqchip
(GIC), and for in-kernel irqchip can tell the GIC to use PPIs designated for
specific cpus. The irq field is interpreted like this:
bits: | 31 ... 24 | 23 ... 16 | 15 ... 0 |
field: | irq_type | vcpu_index | irq_number |
The irq_type field has the following values:
- irq_type[0]: out-of-kernel GIC: irq_number 0 is IRQ, irq_number 1 is FIQ
- irq_type[1]: in-kernel GIC: SPI, irq_number between 32 and 1019 (incl.)
(the vcpu_index field is ignored)
- irq_type[2]: in-kernel GIC: PPI, irq_number between 16 and 31 (incl.)
The irq_number thus corresponds to the irq ID in as in the GICv2 specs.
This is documented in Documentation/kvm/api.txt.

Targets KVM support for Cortex A-15 processors.
Contains all the framework components, make files, header files, some
tracing functionality, and basic user space API.
Only supported core is Cortex-A15 for now.
Most functionality is in arch/arm/kvm/* or arch/arm/include/asm/kvm_*.h.
