Bits for undefined preemption levels are RAZ/WI.
|
||||
|
||||
For historical reasons and to provide ABI compatibility with userspace we
|
||||
export the GICC_PMR register in the format of the GICH_VMCR.VMPriMask
|
||||
field in the lower 5 bits of a word, meaning that userspace must always
|
||||
use the lower 5 bits to communicate with the KVM device and must shift the
|
||||
value left by 3 places to obtain the actual priority mask level.
|
||||
|
||||
Limitations:
|
||||
- Priorities are not implemented, and registers are RAZ/WI
|
||||
- Currently only implemented for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V2.
