GIC CPU interfaces versions predating GIC v4.1 were not built to accommodate vINTID within the vSGI range; as reported in the GIC specifications (8.2 "Changes to the CPU interface"), it is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE to deliver a vSGI to a PE with ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC < b0011. Check the GIC CPUIF version by reading the SYS_ID_AA64_PFR0_EL1. Disable vSGIs if a CPUIF version < 4.1 is detected to prevent using vSGIs on systems where they may misbehave.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
