Linux kernel source tree
ec4308ecfc
The GIC/ITS code is designed to ensure to pick up any preallocated LPI
tables on the redistributors, as enabling LPIs is a one-way switch. There
is no such restriction for vLPIs, and for GICv4.1 it is expected to
allocate a new vPE table at boot.
This works as intended when initializing an ITS, however when setting up a
redistributor in cpu_init_lpis() the early return for preallocated RD
tables skips straight past the GICv4 setup. This all comes to a head when
trying to kexec() into a new kernel, as the new kernel silently fails to
set up GICv4, leading to a complete loss of SGIs and LPIs for KVM VMs.
Slap a band-aid on the problem by ensuring its_cpu_init_lpis() always
initializes GICv4 on the way out, even if the other RD tables were
preallocated.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
