Hello Oleksandr,
Thank you for your good question, I was thinking about that as well.

I think so, it will be useful. By the way, native Linux prints this
information, so I would prefer to add a message right after checking if
the hardware supports eSPI:
/* The GIC HW doesn't support eSPI, so we can leave from here */
if ( gicv3_info.nr_espi == 0 )
return;
printk("GICv3: %d eSPI lines\n", gicv3_info.nr_espi);
This log will appear right after the common one and will look like this:
(XEN) GICv3: 988 lines, (IID 0000043b)
(XEN) GICv3: 1024 eSPI lines

Best regards,
