I strongly oppose removal of a port/support for a certain architecture just because some implementations of it are/were problematic. Adding a warning is fine. Alexander P.S. Demi Marie, please note that oss-security list content guidelines explicitly discourage CC'ing other lists(*), and Xen advisories are already stretching this. In this reply, I am still CC'ing many of what you had CC'ed as I am following up on your specific points relevant to those lists, but in general let's be more careful about this. (*) Because we may then get off-topic follow-ups from there, especially if CC'ing project user lists or high-volume lists like LKML. In this specific case, we're lucky so far.

Add GICv3 emulation support for vmm on arm platform
by colorglass4＠outlook.com 27 Sep '23

27 Sep '23

Hi, I am trying to run a guest Linux using seL4's vmm library on the rk3568 platform, which uses gicv3 as its irq controller. But there is only gicv2 emulation officially supported in the vm library. I did find that there are 2 "gicv3" branch of the repository, but they are all outdated and have not being maintained for a long time. Is there any plan to formally add the gicv3 support to vmm library? Thanks.
