[PATCH 05/14] irqchip/gic-v3-its: Prepare shadow structures for KVM host deprivilege
From: Sebastian Ene
Date: Tue Mar 10 2026 - 09:53:43 EST
Expose two helper functions to support emulated ITS in the hypervisor.
These allow the KVM layer to notify the driver when hypervisor
initialization is complete.
The caller is expected to use the functions as follows:
1. its_start_deprivilege(): Acquire the ITS locks.
2. on_each_cpu(_kvm_host_prot_finalize, ...): Finalizes pKVM init
3. its_end_deprivilege(): Shadow the ITS structures, invoke the KVM
callback, and release locks.
Specifically, this shadows the ITS command queue and the 1st level
indirect tables. These shadow buffers will be used by the driver after
host deprivilege, while the hypervisor unmaps and takes ownership of the
original structures.
