GIC-500 supports up to 128 cores in a single SoC. Increase MAX_VIRT_CPUS
to 128 on arm64.
Where did you find this restriction? AFAICT the changes you made in the vGICv3
driver allow us to use up to 4096 CPUs.
In ARM DDI0516B (ARM CoreLinkTM GIC-500 Generic Interrupt Controller
Technical Reference Manual):
1.1 About the GIC-500
The GIC-500 is a build-time configurable interrupt controller that supports up
to 128 cores.
...
And GIC-500 is the only GICv3 implementation as far as I know.
The only implementation hardware ;). The vGICv3 in both KVM and Xen are
2 other implementations but software.
For instance, with your series a cluster can use up to 16 cores but the
GIC-500 is only supporting up to 8 cores...
