Wouldn't that be broken when using GIC priority masking, since that can prevent
IRQS being signalled ot the PE?
I'm happy to rework this, but I'll need to think a bit harder about it. Would
you be happy if we did that as a follow-up?
I suspect we'll want to split that out into a helper, e.g.
static __always_inline handle_pending_host_irqs(void)
{
/*
* TODO: explain PMR masking / signalling here
*/
if (!system_uses_irq_prio_masking() &&
!read_sysreg(isr_el1))
return;
local_irq_enable();
isb();
local_irq_disable();
}
