Writes to GICD_ISPENDRn and GICD_ICPENDRn are currently not handled correctly for level-triggered interrupts. The spec states that for level-triggered interrupts, writes to the GICD_ISPENDRn activate the output of a flip-flop which is in turn or'ed with the actual input interrupt signal. Correspondingly, writes to GICD_ICPENDRn simply deactivates the output of that flip-flop, but does not (of course) affect the external input signal. Reads from GICC_IAR will also deactivate the flip-flop output. This requires us to track the state of the level-input separately from the state in the flip-flop. We therefore introduce two new variables on the distributor struct to track these two states. Astute readers may notice that this is introducing more state than required (because an OR of the two states gives you the pending state), but the remaining vgic code uses the pending bitmap for optimized operations to figure out, at the end of the day, if an interrupt is pending or not on the distributor side. Refactoring the code to consider the two state variables all the places where we currently access the precomputed pending value, did not look pretty.
