[PATCH v3 4/8] tools/arm: Introduce the "nr_spis" xl config entry
Posted by Henry Wang 6 months ago
Currently, the number of SPIs allocated to the domain is only
configurable for Dom0less DomUs. Xen domains are supposed to be
platform agnostics and therefore the numbers of SPIs for libxl
guests should not be based on the hardware.

Introduce a new xl config entry for Arm to provide a method for
user to decide the number of SPIs. This would help to avoid
bumping the `config->arch.nr_spis` in libxl everytime there is a
new platform with increased SPI numbers.

Update the doc and the golang bindings accordingly.
