If our builtin kernel bootloader is directly booting a kernel in
the NonSecure world, then we must configure the GIC to put all
the IRQs into the NonSecure group. (By default all interrupts
are configured to be Secure on reset, which means that a NonSecure
guest kernel cannot use any of them.) This job would usually
be done by the Secure boot firmware, but our builtin bootloader
is doing the job of firmware.

I did think about that, yeah. I guess something like
object_descendants_foreach(), same signature as
object_child_foreach(), same semantics except it also
iterates through the whole tree (and calls the callback
for the nodes-with-children as well as the leaves) ?

The point here is that "do we need to do this" is exactly
dependent on what we're doing with the CPU. Only if we
want to put the guest into NS do we do this, and the
condition for "are we going to put the guest into NS"
is "is this a Linux boot on a CPU with EL3 but where
the board says don't boot in S". It matches what the
existing logic does for when it sets the SCR_NS bit in
do_cpu_reset() in this file.

I'm a bit torn here -- I don't want to make it *too* easy for
people to add linux-booting specific code to random devices,
as this will lead to the bootloader code having its tentacles
everywhere within the tree...

The one board we have so far that needs this code doesn't
have an SoC level object -- virt just creates the CPU and
GIC itself...

So I thought about this a bit, and I guess that having a general
interface is probably better than specifically setting a GIC
property. It does need to be called once at arm_kernel_load_notify
time, not as a reset hook. I also think it should pass in the
arm_boot_info* as a parameter. This would let the GIC do the
right thing based on whether we're booting S or NS.

Are you planning to respin this patchset, or should I just pull
the relevant bits into my series?

thanks
