@@ -63,6 +63,22 @@ The following machine-specific options are supported:
When this option is "on", ACLINT devices will be emulated instead of
SiFive CLINT. When not specified, this option is assumed to be "off".
+- aia=[none|aplic|aplic-imsic]
+
+ This option allows selecting interrupt controller defined by the AIA
+ (advanced interrupt architecture) specification. The "aia=aplic" selects
+ APLIC (advanced platform level interrupt controller) to handle wired
+ interrupts whereas the "aia=aplic-imsic" selects APLIC and IMSIC (incoming
+ message signaled interrupt controller) to handle both wired interrupts and
+ MSIs. When not specified, this option is assumed to be "none" which selects
+ SiFive PLIC to handle wired interrupts.

+- aia-guests=nnn
+
+ The number of per-HART VS-level AIA IMSIC pages to be emulated for a guest
+ having AIA IMSIC (i.e. "aia=aplic-imsic" selected). When not specified,
+ the default number of per-HART VS-level AIA IMSIC pages is 0.
