+RISC-V AIA support for RISC-V machines
+======================================
+
+AIA (Advanced Interrupt Architecture) support is implemented in the ``virt``
+RISC-V machine for TCG and KVM accelerators.
+
+The support consists of two main modes:
+
+- "aia=aplic": adds one or more APLIC (Advanced Platform Level Interrupt Controller)
+  devices
+- "aia=aplic-imsic": adds one or more APLIC device and an IMSIC (Incoming MSI
+   Controller) device for each CPU
+
+From an user standpoint, these modes will behave the same regardless of the accelerator
+used.  From a developer standpoint the accelerator settings will change what it being
+emulated in userspace versus what is being emulated by an in-kernel irqchip.
+
+When running TCG, all controllers are emulated in userspace, including machine mode
+(m-mode) APLIC and IMSIC (when applicable).
+
+When running KVM:
+
+- no m-mode is provided, so there is no m-mode APLIC or IMSIC emulation regardless of
+  the AIA mode chosen
+- with "aia=aplic", s-mode APLIC will be emulated by userspace
+- with "aia=aplic-imsic" there are two possibilities.  If no additional KVM option
+  is provided there will be no APLIC or IMSIC emulation in userspace, and the virtual
+  machine will use the provided in-kernel APLIC and IMSIC controllers.  If the user
+  chooses to use the irqchip in split mode via "-accel kvm,kernel-irqchip=split",
+  s-mode APLIC will be emulated while using the s-mode IMSIC from the irqchip
+
+The following table summarizes how the AIA and accelerator options defines what
+we will emulate in userspace:

+64-bit) RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) and contains interfaces
+compatible with the classic MicroBlaze™ V processor (i.e it is a drop in
+replacement for the classic MicroBlaze™ processor in existing RTL designs).
