[PATCH 1/7] irqchip: armada-370-xp: Simplify interrupt map, mask and unmask

Hi Ezequiel,

On 22/10/2014 15:43, Ezequiel Garcia wrote:
The map, mask and unmask is unnecessarily complicated, with a different
implementation for shared and per CPU interrupts. The current code does
the following:

At probe time, all interrupts are disabled and masked on all CPUs.

Shared interrupts:

 * When the interrupt is mapped(), it gets disabled and unmasked on the
   calling CPU.

 * When the interrupt is unmasked(), masked(), it gets enabled and
   disabled.

Per CPU interrupts:

 * When the interrupt is mapped, it gets masked on the calling CPU and
   enabled.

 * When the interrupt is unmasked(), masked(), it gets unmasked and masked,
   on the calling CPU.

This commit simplifies this code, with a much simpler implementation, common
to shared and per CPU interrupts.

 * When the interrupt is mapped, it's enabled.

 * When the interrupt is unmasked(), masked(), it gets unmasked and masked,
   on the calling CPU.
By doing this you change the behavior of the irqchip. Before this patch, masking
a shared interrupt was masking it on all the CPUs in the same time whereas with this
change it will mask the interrupt only on the calling CPU. It worth checking it is
the expected behavior.

Moreover I wonder how it is supposed to work with the irq affinity. Let say that the
irq was enabled on the CPU0, then there is irq_unmask call on CPU1, then the irq would
be enabled on both CPUs. It will modify the irq affinity and moreover it will also lead
to an invalidate state with the MPIC because we can't manage an interrupt on more than
one CPU.
From the point of the view of the armada_370_xp_irq driver there are potential bug, but
maybe the use case I described can't happen. Could you check it?


Thanks,

Gregory

Tested on a Armada XP SoC with SMP and UP configurations, with chained and
regular interrupts.
