Hello again, Thomas,

Did I properly answer your question? Will you accept my patch exporting these
two functions?

Do you think my paravirtualization code registering a child irq_domain
for x86_vector_domain could bring any profit to the mainline?
I would be glad to put effort and do it.

Thanks again, sorry for disturbing.

Best regards,
Alexander

I think that without any in-tree modular users of these symbols, the
incentive for exporting those is pretty low. I can't really say
anything about your particular use-case, but I'd really to see some
code before taking that kind of patch.

Thanks,

Thanks for your answer, Mark.

Here is the module which uses __irq_domain_alloc_irqs() and
irq_domain_free_irqs() and allows registering IRQ handlers for interrupts
injected by the hypervisor on x86_64. Large hypervisors usually emulate
an MSI-capable PCI device to do this job, but that way is inappropriate
for lightweight hypervisors.

I hope that the code below is a valid use-case of irq_domain hierarchy API.
Such simple registration of IRQ handlers for interrupts injected by a hypervisor
is great for lightweight hypervisors, which avoid as much emulation as possible.

It only needs __irq_domain_alloc_irqs() and irq_domain_free_irqs() to be
exported to modules. Will you apply my patch which exports them?

[Add CC to KVM people to share the idea and, hopefully, find anybody interested]
