I think that for consistency we always want to keep IRQ and FIQ in-sync, even when using GIC priorities. So when handling a pseudo-NMI we should unmask DAIF.DA and leave DAIF.IF masked.In that case there's one more, in daifflags.h:local_daif_restore(): /* * If interrupts are disabled but we can take * asynchronous errors, we can take NMIs */ flags &= PSR_I_BIT; pmr = GIC_PRIO_IRQOFF;
Good spot, yes! I did a quick scan with `git grep 'PSR_[IF]_BIT' -- arch/arm64`, and AFAICT that's the last one.

And a minor related one: should init_gic_priority_masking() WARN if FIQ is masked too? This probably goes with the above.I think it should, yes.Done for v3 then. Thanks!
Cool! Mark. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
