About

Currently, only RISC-V INTC interrupt controller is supported in QEMU ACPI virt machine. Add AIA interrupt controllers (IMSIC, APLIC) so that IO devices can be used with ACPI.

Project Scope and Timelines

Changes to hw/riscv/virt.c and hw/riscv/virt-acpi-build.c around:

• Migrate few common functions from hw/arm/virt-acpi-build.c to a common location so that RISC-V can use the same.
• Update RINTC structure to support IMSIC and APLIC
• Add IMSIC in MADT
• Add APLIC in MADT
• Add perfipherals in DSDT (UART, PCI, virtio)

In addition, add CMO and MMU nodes in RHCT.

Components and Repos

Upstream Qemu.

Stakeholders and Partners

Dependencies

None.

Measure of Success

An accepted and tested design and implementation by end of 2H23 (slated for merging).

RISE Requirements

None (not accounting any of existing engineering investment against RISE resources).
