# \[PATCH v3 1/3\] Merge IPI and DEFAULT priorities - From: Balbir Singh \ - Date: 2017-01-05 04:55:55 - List: linuxppc-dev - Page: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2017/01/9494525 - Thread: https://ratatoskr.run/linuxppc-dev/2017/01/9494524/t.md ```text We merge IPI and DEFAULT priorities to the same value. The idea is to keep interrupts enabled even in lazy soft-disabled mode. Instead of storing the IPI and irq separately, we keep the levels same so that we deal with only one of them Cc: Michael Ellerman Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Nicholas Piggin Signed-off-by: Balbir Singh --- arch/powerpc/include/asm/xics.h | 8 ++------ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/xics.h b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/xics.h index f0b2385..d6cb9a0 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/xics.h +++ b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/xics.h @@ -14,17 +14,13 @@ /* Want a priority other than 0.
