POWER9 eXternal Interrupt Virtualization Engine (XIVE Gen1)
==========================================================
Device types supported:
KVM_DEV_TYPE_XIVE POWER9 XIVE Interrupt Controller generation 1
This device acts as a VM interrupt controller. It provides the KVM
interface to configure the interrupt sources of a VM in the underlying
POWER9 XIVE interrupt controller.
Only one XIVE instance may be instantiated. A guest XIVE device
requires a POWER9 host and the guest OS should have support for the
XIVE native exploitation interrupt mode. If not, it should run using
the legacy interrupt mode, referred as XICS (POWER7/8).
* Groups:
1. KVM_DEV_XIVE_GRP_CTRL
Provides global controls on the device
