The registers of real IOAPICs can be relocated during runtime (via
chipset registers). We don't support this yet, but qemu-kvm carries the
current base address in its version 2 vmstate.

To align both implementations for migratability, add the proper
infrastructure to accept initial as well as updated base addresses and
include the current address in the vmstate. This is done in a way that
will also allow multiple IOAPICs in the future.

Nack, the addresses should be device properties.

Hmm.... we could make default_base_address a property. Will change that.
But current_base_address is just the same as apicbase and can't be a
property.

Oh, right. What will current_base_address used for? Why can't board
just unmap IOAPIC from current address and remap it at the new
address? Then the device would not need to know its base address.

The board could do this. The question is where we put this service, in
the context if the IOAPIC as ioapic_set_base_address (compare to
cpu_set_apic_base - which is buggy as it lacks sysbus_mmio_map) or into
each and every board code. In the latter case, the boards would also be
responsible for saving/restoring the address.

Well, unless we have a good reason, I would prefer to keep the split as
suggested, also to avoid that qemu-kvm needs to break its vmstate.

Jan

PS: Another bug in the APIC emulation: cpu_set_apic_base lacks a call to
sysbus_mmio_map to update its mapping.

How is the device relocated? Where are the chipset registers you mention?

Intel's PIIX chipsets contain a register called APICBASE (but it means
the IOAPIC), and that defines the location. The analogy in the APIC
world is the MSR_IA32_APICBASE which we maintain via the APIC state.

In ICH10 the register is called OIC—Other Interrupt Control Register
and the interesting bits APIC Range Select (ASEL).

So actually PIIX should manage IOAPIC mapping, not board level.

The point is we need ioapic_set_base_address logic in multiple places
(once chipsets start to implement it). Better push it to a central place
from the beginning. Also the bit keeping. There is no difference to
apicbase.

In that case, the function should be made inline version in ioapic.h.

That still replicates the bit keeping.

I don't see the benefit of moving it over, even less when we want to
consolidate with a vmstate layout that is already in use.

The benefit is that the device model is improved.

instead add a dummy field to a vmstate version 3 so that qemu-kvm can
remove the base_address evaluation logic when updating.
