The qemu_irq array is now allocated at the machine level using a sPAPR
IRQ set_irq handler depending on the chosen interrupt mode. The use of
this handler is slightly inefficient today but it will become necessary
when the 'dual' interrupt mode is introduced.

After the event data was enqueued in the O/S Event Queue, the IVPE
raises the bit corresponding to the priority of the pending interrupt
in the register IBP (Interrupt Pending Buffer) to indicate there is an
event pending in one of the 8 priority queues. The Pending Interrupt
Priority Register (PIPR) is also updated using the IPB. This register
represent the priority of the most favored pending notification.
The PIPR is then compared to the the Current Processor Priority
Register (CPPR). If it is more favored (numerically less than), the
CPU interrupt line is raised and the EO bit of the Notification Source
Register (NSR) is updated to notify the presence of an exception for
the O/S. The check needs to be done whenever the PIPR or the CPPR are
changed.
The O/S acknowledges the interrupt with a special load in the Thread
Interrupt Management Area. If the EO bit of the NSR is set, the CPPR
takes the value of PIPR. The bit number in the IBP corresponding to
the priority of the pending interrupt is reseted and so is the EO bit
of the NSR.

The last sub-engine of the XIVE architecture is the Interrupt
Virtualization Presentation Engine (IVPE). On HW, the IVRE and the
IVPE share elements, the Power Bus interface (CQ), the routing table
descriptors, and they can be combined in the same HW logic. We do the
same in QEMU and combine both engines in the XiveRouter for
simplicity.
When the IVRE has completed its job of matching an event source with a
Notification Virtual Target (NVT) to notify, it forwards the event
notification to the IVPE sub-engine. The IVPE scans the thread
interrupt contexts of the Notification Virtual Targets (NVT)
dispatched on the HW processor threads and if a match is found, it
signals the thread. If not, the IVPE escalates the notification to
some other targets and records the notification in a backlog queue.
The IVPE maintains the thread interrupt context state for each of its
NVTs not dispatched on HW processor threads in the Notification
Virtual Target table (NVTT).
The model currently only supports single NVT notifications.

Each POWER9 processor chip has a XIVE presenter that can generate four
different exceptions to its threads:
- hypervisor exception,
- O/S exception
- Event-Based Branch (EBB)
- msgsnd (doorbell).
Each exception has a state independent from the others called a Thread
Interrupt Management context. This context is a set of registers which
lets the thread handle priority management and interrupt acknowledgment
among other things. The most important ones being :
- Interrupt Priority Register (PIPR)
- Interrupt Pending Buffer (IPB)
- Current Processor Priority (CPPR)
- Notification Source Register (NSR)
These registers are accessible through a specific MMIO region, called
the Thread Interrupt Management Area (TIMA), four aligned pages, each
exposing a different view of the registers. First page (page address
ending in 0b00) gives access to the entire context and is reserved for
the ring 0 view for the physical thread context. The second (page
address ending in 0b01) is for the hypervisor, ring 1 view. The third
(page address ending in 0b10) is for the operating system, ring 2
view. The fourth (page address ending in 0b11) is for user level, ring
3 view.
The thread interrupt context is modeled with a XiveTCTX object
containing the values of the different exception registers. The TIMA
region is mapped at the same address for each CPU.

The Event Notification Descriptor (END) XIVE structure also contains
two Event State Buffers providing further coalescing of interrupts,
one for the notification event (ESn) and one for the escalation events
(ESe). A MMIO page is assigned for each to control the EOI through
loads only. Stores are not allowed.
The END ESBs are modeled through an object resembling the 'XiveSource'
It is stateless as the END state bits are backed into the XiveEND
structure under the XiveRouter and the MMIO accesses follow the same
rules as for the XiveSource ESBs.
END ESBs are not supported by the Linux drivers neither on OPAL nor on
sPAPR. Nevetherless, it provides a mean to study the question in the
future and validates a bit more the XIVE model.

To complete the event routing, the IVRE sub-engine uses a second table
containing Event Notification Descriptor (END) structures.
An END specifies on which Event Queue (EQ) the event notification
data, defined in the associated EAS, should be posted when an
exception occurs. It also defines which Notification Virtual Target
(NVT) should be notified.
The Event Queue is a memory page provided by the O/S defining a
circular buffer, one per server and priority couple, containing Event
Queue entries. These are 4 bytes long, the first bit being a
'generation' bit and the 31 following bits the END Data field. They
are pulled by the O/S when the exception occurs.
The END Data field is a way to set an invariant logical event source
number for an IRQ. On sPAPR machines, it is set with the
H_INT_SET_SOURCE_CONFIG hcall when the EISN flag is used.

The XiveRouter models the second sub-engine of the XIVE architecture :
the Interrupt Virtualization Routing Engine (IVRE).
The IVRE handles event notifications of the IVSE and performs the
interrupt routing process. For this purpose, it uses a set of tables
stored in system memory, the first of which being the Event Assignment
Structure (EAS) table.
The EAT associates an interrupt source number with an Event Notification
Descriptor (END) which will be used in a second phase of the routing
process to identify a Notification Virtual Target.
The XiveRouter is an abstract class which needs to be inherited from
to define a storage for the EAT, and other upcoming tables.

The first sub-engine of the overall XIVE architecture is the Interrupt
Virtualization Source Engine (IVSE). An IVSE can be integrated into
another logic, like in a PCI PHB or in the main interrupt controller
to manage IPIs.
Each IVSE instance is associated with an Event State Buffer (ESB) that
contains a two bit state entry for each possible event source. When an
event is signaled to the IVSE, by MMIO or some other means, the
associated interrupt state bits are fetched from the ESB and
modified. Depending on the resulting ESB state, the event is forwarded
to the IVRE sub-engine of the controller doing the routing.
Each supported ESB entry is associated with either a single or a
even/odd pair of pages which provides commands to manage the source:
to EOI, to turn off the source for instance.
On a sPAPR machine, the O/S will obtain the page address of the ESB
entry associated with a source and its characteristic using the
H_INT_GET_SOURCE_INFO hcall. On PowerNV, a similar OPAL call is used.
The xive_source_notify() routine is in charge forwarding the source
event notification to the routing engine. It will be filled later on.
