Hello,

The QEMU PowerNV machine emulates a baremetal OpenPOWER system and
acts as an hypervisor (L0). Supporting emulation of KVM to run guests
(L1) requires a few more extensions, among which guest support for the
XIVE interrupt controller on POWER9 processor.

The following changes include some fixes for the PowerNV machine and
provide support for XIVE escalations and interrupt resend. This
mechanism is used by XIVE to notify the hypervisor that a vCPU is not
dispatched on a HW thread. Tested on a QEMU PowerNV machine and a
simple QEMU pseries guest doing network on a local bridge.

The XIVE interrupt controller offers a way to increase the XIVE
resources per chip by configuring multiple XIVE blocks on a chip. This
is not currently supported by the model. However, some configurations,
such as OPAL/skiboot, use one block-per-chip configuration with some
optimizations. One of them is to override the hardwired chip ID by the
block id in the PowerBUS operations and for CAM compares. This
patchset improves the support for this setup. Tested with 4 chips.

A series from Suraj adding guest support in the Radix MMU model of the
QEMU PowerNV machine is still required and will be send later. The
whole patchset can be found under :

  https://github.com/legoater/qemu/tree/powernv-4.1

Thanks,

C.

Changes since v1:

 - minor extra fixes 
 - split the escalation support in different patches
 - kept the XiveRouter type for XiveTCTX back pointer (will address
   this in P10)
 - removed pnv_xive_vst_size(). Really broken on indirect tables.
 - improved the dump of the NVT table
 - introduce pnv_xive_get_block_id()
