PARAVIRT option and pv ipi is added on guest kernel side, function
pv_ipi_init() is to add ipi sending and ipi receiving hooks. This function
firstly checks whether system runs on VM mode. If kernel runs on VM mode,
it will call function kvm_para_available() to detect current hypervirsor
type. Now only KVM type detection is supported, the paravirt function can
work only if current hypervisor type is KVM, since there is only KVM
supported on LoongArch now.
PV IPI uses virtual IPI sender and virtual IPI receiver function. With
virutal IPI sender, ipi message is stored in DDR memory rather than
emulated HW. IPI multicast is supported, and 128 vcpus can received IPIs
at the same time like X86 KVM method. Hypercall method is used for IPI
sending.
With virtual IPI receiver, HW SW0 is used rather than real IPI HW. Since
VCPU has separate HW SW0 like HW timer, there is no trap in IPI interrupt
acknowledge. And IPI message is stored in DDR, no trap in get IPI message.
