Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 6/7] xen/arm: Force domains to use normal GICv2 driver on Hip04 platform

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Frediano,

FYI, this is only force DOM0 to use the normal GICv2 drivers. I.e the
title of this patch is wrong.

Do you have any plan to support hi-silicon vGIC in Xen? This would allow
guest running with more than 8 cores.

Regards,
