[PATCH v3] KVM: arm64: Add early_param to control WFx trapping

From: Colton Lewis
Date: Wed Apr 10 2024 - 13:55:27 EST


Add an early_param to control WFx (WFI or WFE) trapping. This is so
interrupts can be passed through if the CPU has support for direct
interrupt injection, a feature of GICv4. This is described as an
enumeration with three possible behaviors, always passthrough (never
trap), never passthrough (always trap), or default (trap if more than
one task is running. Default matches the current behavior.

v3:
* Changed control mechanism to an early_param on Marc's advice this should be
a system level decision and not exposed via uapi
* Reduced behavior to an enum from an integer as there are only a few options
that make logical sense
* Limit option for always passthrough to systems with GICv4 since the primary
case for always passthrough is systems with direct interrupt injection
