KVM: arm/arm64: Add VGICv3 save/restore API documentation

Factor out the GICv3 and ITS-specific documentation into a separate
documentation file.  Add description for how to access distributor,
redistributor, and CPU interface registers for GICv3 in this new file,
and add a group for accessing level triggered IRQ information for GICv3
as well.

+ARM Virtual Generic Interrupt Controller v3 and later (VGICv3)
+==============================================================
+
+
+Device types supported:
+  KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3     ARM Generic Interrupt Controller v3.0
+
+Only one VGIC instance may be instantiated through this API.  The created VGIC
+will act as the VM interrupt controller, requiring emulated user-space devices
+to inject interrupts to the VGIC instead of directly to CPUs.  It is not
+possible to create both a GICv3 and GICv2 on the same VM.
+
+Creating a guest GICv3 device requires a host GICv3 as well.
+
+
+Groups:
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR
+  Attributes:
+    KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_DIST (rw, 64-bit)
+      Base address in the guest physical address space of the GICv3 distributor
+      register mappings. Only valid for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3.
+      This address needs to be 64K aligned and the region covers 64 KByte.
+
+    KVM_VGIC_V3_ADDR_TYPE_REDIST (rw, 64-bit)
+      Base address in the guest physical address space of the GICv3
+      redistributor register mappings. There are two 64K pages for each
+      VCPU and all of the redistributor pages are contiguous.
+      Only valid for KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V3.
+      This address needs to be 64K aligned.
+  Errors:
+    -E2BIG:  Address outside of addressable IPA range
+    -EINVAL: Incorrectly aligned address
+    -EEXIST: Address already configured
+    -ENXIO:  The group or attribute is unknown/unsupported for this device
+             or hardware support is missing.
+    -EFAULT: Invalid user pointer for attr->addr.
+
+
+
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_REDIST_REGS
+  Attributes:
+    The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values:
+    bits:     | 63   ....  32  |  31   ....    0 |
+    values:   |      mpidr     |      offset     |
+
+    All distributor regs are (rw, 32-bit) and kvm_device_attr.addr points to a
+    __u32 value.  64-bit registers must be accessed by separately accessing the
+    lower and higher word.
+
+    Writes to read-only registers are ignored by the kernel.
+
+    KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_DIST_REGS accesses the main distributor registers.
+    KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_REDIST_REGS accesses the redistributor of the CPU
+    specified by the mpidr.
+
+    The offset is relative to the "[Re]Distributor base address" as defined
+    in the GICv3/4 specs.  Getting or setting such a register has the same
+    effect as reading or writing the register on real hardware, except for the
+    following registers: GICD_STATUSR, GICR_STATUSR, GICD_ISPENDR,
+    GICR_ISPENDR0, GICD_ICPENDR, and GICR_ICPENDR0.  These registers behave
+    differently when accessed via this interface compared to their
+    architecturally defined behavior to allow software a full view of the
+    VGIC's internal state.
+
+    The mpidr field is used to specify which
+    redistributor is accessed.  The mpidr is ignored for the distributor.
+
+    The mpidr encoding is based on the affinity information in the
+    architecture defined MPIDR, and the field is encoded as follows:
+      | 63 .... 56 | 55 .... 48 | 47 .... 40 | 39 .... 32 |
+      |    Aff3    |    Aff2    |    Aff1    |    Aff0    |
+
+    Note that distributor fields are not banked, but return the same value
+    regardless of the mpidr used to access the register.
+
+    The GICD_STATUSR and GICR_STATUSR registers are architecturally defined such
+    that a write of a clear bit has no effect, whereas a write with a set bit
+    clears that value.  To allow userspace to freely set the values of these two
+    registers, setting the attributes with the register offsets for these two
+    registers simply sets the non-reserved bits to the value written.
+
+
+    Accesses (reads and writes) to the GICD_ISPENDR register region and
+    GICR_ISPENDR0 registers get/set the value of the latched pending state for
+    the interrupts.
+
+    This is identical to the value returned by a guest read from ISPENDR for an
+    edge triggered interrupt, but may differ for level triggered interrupts.
+    For edge triggered interrupts, once an interrupt becomes pending (whether
+    because of an edge detected on the input line or because of a guest write
+    to ISPENDR) this state is "latched", and only cleared when either the
+    interrupt is activated or when the guest writes to ICPENDR. A level
+    triggered interrupt may be pending either because the level input is held
+    high by a device, or because of a guest write to the ISPENDR register. Only
+    ISPENDR writes are latched; if the device lowers the line level then the
+    interrupt is no longer pending unless the guest also wrote to ISPENDR, and
+    conversely writes to ICPENDR or activations of the interrupt do not clear
+    the pending status if the line level is still being held high.  (These
+    rules are documented in the GICv3 specification descriptions of the ICPENDR
+    and ISPENDR registers.) For a level triggered interrupt the value accessed
+    here is that of the latch which is set by ISPENDR and cleared by ICPENDR or
+    interrupt activation, whereas the value returned by a guest read from
+    ISPENDR is the logical OR of the latch value and the input line level.
+
+    Raw access to the latch state is provided to userspace so that it can save
+    and restore the entire GIC internal state (which is defined by the
+    combination of the current input line level and the latch state, and cannot
+    be deduced from purely the line level and the value of the ISPENDR
+    registers).
+
+    Accesses to GICD_ICPENDR register region and GICR_ICPENDR0 registers have
+    RAZ/WI semantics, meaning that reads always return 0 and writes are always
+    ignored.
+
+  Errors:
+    -ENXIO: Getting or setting this register is not yet supported
+    -EBUSY: One or more VCPUs are running
+
+
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CPU_SYSREGS
+  Attributes:
+    The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes two values:
+    bits:     | 63      ....       32 | 31  ....  16 | 15  ....  0 |
+    values:   |         mpidr         |      RES     |    instr    |
+
+    The mpidr field encodes the CPU ID based on the affinity information in the
+    architecture defined MPIDR, and the field is encoded as follows:
+      | 63 .... 56 | 55 .... 48 | 47 .... 40 | 39 .... 32 |
+      |    Aff3    |    Aff2    |    Aff1    |    Aff0    |
+
+    The instr field encodes the system register to access based on the fields
+    defined in the A64 instruction set encoding for system register access
+    (RES means the bits are reserved for future use and should be zero):
+
+      | 15 ... 14 | 13 ... 11 | 10 ... 7 | 6 ... 3 | 2 ... 0 |
+      |   Op 0    |    Op1    |    CRn   |   CRm   |   Op2   |
+
+    All system regs accessed through this API are (rw, 64-bit) and
+    kvm_device_attr.addr points to a __u64 value.
+
+    KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CPU_SYSREGS accesses the CPU interface registers for the
+    CPU specified by the mpidr field.
+
+  Errors:
+    -ENXIO: Getting or setting this register is not yet supported
+    -EBUSY: VCPU is running
+    -EINVAL: Invalid mpidr supplied
+
+
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_NR_IRQS
+  Attributes:
+    A value describing the number of interrupts (SGI, PPI and SPI) for
+    this GIC instance, ranging from 64 to 1024, in increments of 32.
+
+    kvm_device_attr.addr points to a __u32 value.
+
+  Errors:
+    -EINVAL: Value set is out of the expected range
+    -EBUSY: Value has already be set.
+
+
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL
+  Attributes:
+    KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT
+      request the initialization of the VGIC, no additional parameter in
+      kvm_device_attr.addr.
+  Errors:
+    -ENXIO: VGIC not properly configured as required prior to calling
+     this attribute
+    -ENODEV: no online VCPU
+    -ENOMEM: memory shortage when allocating vgic internal data
+
+
+  KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_LEVEL_INFO
+  Attributes:
+    The attr field of kvm_device_attr encodes the following values:
+    bits:     | 63      ....       32 | 31   ....    10 | 9  ....  0 |
+    values:   |         mpidr         |      info       |   vINTID   |
+
+    The vINTID specifies which set of IRQs is reported on.
+
+    The info field specifies which information userspace wants to get or set
+    using this interface.  Currently we support the following info values:
+
+      VGIC_LEVEL_INFO_LINE_LEVEL:
+	Get/Set the input level of the IRQ line for a set of 32 contiguously
+	numbered interrupts.
+	vINTID must be a multiple of 32.
+
+	kvm_device_attr.addr points to a __u32 value which will contain a
+	bitmap where a set bit means the interrupt level is asserted.
+
+	Bit[n] indicates the status for interrupt vINTID + n.
+
+    SGIs and any interrupt with a higher ID than the number of interrupts
+    supported, will be RAZ/WI.  LPIs are always edge-triggered and are
+    therefore not supported by this interface.
+
+    PPIs are reported per VCPU as specified in the mpidr field, and SPIs are
+    reported with the same value regardless of the mpidr specified.
+
+    The mpidr field encodes the CPU ID based on the affinity information in the
+    architecture defined MPIDR, and the field is encoded as follows:
+      | 63 .... 56 | 55 .... 48 | 47 .... 40 | 39 .... 32 |
+      |    Aff3    |    Aff2    |    Aff1    |    Aff0    |
