Subject[PATCH] KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Handle GICR_PENDBASER.PTZ filed as RAZ
Date
Although guest will hardly read and use the PTZ (Pending Table Zero)
bit in GICR_PENDBASER, let us emulate the architecture strictly.
As per IHI 0069E 9.11.30, PTZ field is WO, and reads as 0.

Noticed when checking all fields of GICR_PENDBASER register.
But _not_ sure whether it's worth a fix, as Linux never sets
the PTZ bit before enabling LPI (set GICR_CTLR_ENABLE_LPIS).

And I wonder under which scenarios can this bit be written as 1.
It seems difficult for software to determine whether the pending
table contains all zeros when writing this bit.
