Before commit 662d9715840aef44dcb573b0f9fab9e8319c868a
("arm/arm64: KVM: Kill CONFIG_KVM_ARM_{VGIC,TIMER}") is was possible to
compile the kernel without vGIC and vTimer support. Commit message says
about possibility to detect vGIC support in runtime, but this has never
been implemented.
This patch introdices runtime check, restoring the lost functionality.
It again allows to use KVM on hardware without vGIC. Interrupt
controller has to be emulated in userspace in this case.
-ENODEV return code from probe function means there's no GIC at all.
-ENXIO happens when, for example, there is GIC node in the device tree,
but it does not specify vGIC resources. Normally this means that vGIC
hardware is defunct. Any other error code is still treated as full stop
because it might mean some really serious problems.
This patch does not touch any virtual timer code, suggesting that timer
hardware is actually in place. Normally on boards in question it is true,
however since vGIC is missing, it is impossible to correctly utilize
interrupts from the virtual timer. Since virtual timer handling is in
active redevelopment now, handling in it userspace is out of scope at
the moment. The guest is currently suggested to use some memory-mapped
timer which can be emulated in userspace.
