Junjie Mao c477138f19 HV: ioapic: convert pins to uint8_t
Currently IOAPIC pins are represented using various types, including uint16_t,
int, uint8_t and uint32_t. This patch converts all pins to uint8_t since the
maximum number of interrupt input pins per IOAPIC is limited to 240. The special
value IOAPIC_INVALID_PIN is defined to indicate that a valid pin cannot be
found.

This type clean up also has the following impacts.

    * The values in the ''legacy_irq_to_pin'' table are piggybacked with their
      trigger mode. This patch splits them as the piggyback prevents us from
      using a uint8_t[] for this table, and these two information are never used
      at the same time.

    * The ''offset'' parameter in ioapic_read_reg32 & ioapic_write_reg32 are
      promoted to uint32_t to minimize explicit type conversions and keep
      aligned with the type of formal parameters of mmio_(read|write)_long.

Project ACRN Embedded Hypervisor
################################


The open source project ACRN defines a device hypervisor reference stack
and an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed
securely, on a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine
manager. It also defines a reference framework implementation for
virtual device emulation, called the "ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running
directly on the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of
IoT and embedded device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the
gap that currently exists between datacenter hypervisors, and hard
partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN hypervisor architecture partitions
the system into different functional domains, with carefully selected
guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and embedded devices.

Community Support
*****************

The Project ACRN Developer Community includes developers from member
organizations and the general community all joining in the development of
software within the project. Members contribute and discuss ideas,
submit bugs and bug fixes. They also help those in need
through the community's forums such as mailing lists and IRC channels. Anyone
can join the developer community and the community is always willing to help
its members and the User Community to get the most out of Project ACRN.

Welcome to the project ARCN community!

We're now holding weekly Technical Community Meetings and encourage you
to call in and learn more about the project. Meeting information is on
the `TCM Meeting page`_ in our `ACRN wiki <https://wiki.projectacrn.org/>`_.

Resources
*********

Here's a quick summary of resources to find your way around the Project
ACRN support systems:

* **Project ACRN Website**: The https://projectacrn.org website is the
  central source of information about the project. On this site, you'll
  find background and current information about the project as well as
  relevant links to project material.  For a quick start, refer to the
  `Introduction`_ and `Getting Started Guide`_.

* **Source Code in GitHub**: Project ACRN source code is maintained on a
  public GitHub repository at https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor.
  You'll find information about getting access to the repository and how to
  contribute to the project in this `Contribution Guide`_ document.

* **Documentation**: Project technical documentation is developed
  along with the project's code, and can be found at
  https://projectacrn.github.io.  Additional documentation is maintained in
  the `Project ACRN GitHub wiki`_.

* **Issue Reporting and Tracking**: Requirements and Issue tracking is done in
  the Github issues system: https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/issues.
  You can browse through the reported issues and submit issues of your own.

* **Mailing List**: The `Project ACRN Development mailing list`_ is perhaps the most convenient
  way to track developer discussions and to ask your own support questions to
  the project ACRN community.  There are also specific `ACRN mailing list
  subgroups`_ for builds, users, and Technical
  Steering Committee notes, for example.
  You can read through the message archives to follow
  past posts and discussions, a good thing to do to discover more about the
  project.
