v5 cover Consolidating GIC per-cpu interrupts

The current GIC per-cpu interrupts (aka PPIs) suffer from a number of problems:

- They use a completely separate scheme to handle the interrupts, mostly because the PPI concept doesn't really match the kernel view of an interrupt.
- Some low-level code gets duplicated, as usual...
- PPIs can only be used by the timer code, unless we add more low-level assembly code.
- At least one platform (msm) has started implementing its own alternative scheme.

The proposed solution is to let the GIC code expose the PPIs as something that the kernel can manage. Instead of having a single interrupt number shared on all cores, make the interrupt number be different on each CPU.

This enables the use of the normal kernel API (request_irq() and friends) and the elimination of some low level code. On the other side, it causes quite a bit of churn in the timer code.

This patch set is based on 3.0-rc1. Tested on PB-11MP, Pandaboard and SMDK-V310.

- Fix yet another CPU_HOTPLUG problem: instead of calling free_irq() on timer halt, just disable the interrupt. On timer restart, detect that the interrupt has been requested already and just enable the interrupt back. This avoid doing a request_irq() with preemption disabled, which triggers an ugly warning. Reported by Stephen Boyd.

- More MSM fixes
- Dropped MSM interrupt handler removal, as this requires more discussion, and will be addressed in a separate series.
- Moved introduction of percpu_timer_handler to a separate patch

RFC PATCH v5 1/13 ARM: gic: add per-cpu interrupt multiplexer

The kernel doesn't handle very well the concept of per-cpu interrupt as implemented by the ARM architecture (the same interrupt level is exposed on each core).

To work around the problem, add another irq_chip to handle PPIs and remap them so that a single interrupt number is only used on a given CPU (for example, IRQ 29 and 30 get exposed as IRQ 128 and 129 on core 0, 130 and 131 on core 1...).

A helper function gic_ppi_to_vppi() is used to convert the PPI number to the per-processor IRQ.

RFC PATCH v5 2/13 ARM: smp: add interrupt handler for local timers

In reply to Marc Zyngier

Provide a "normal" interrupt handler for local timers. It is expected that most timer implementations will use this handler unless they have more specific requirements.

RFC PATCH v5 3/13 ARM: smp_twd: add support for remapped PPI interrupts

In reply to Marc Zyngier

When CONFIG_ARM_GIC_VPPI is enabled, let smp_twd request interrupts the normal way (ie using request_irq()).

This involves letting PPIs go via the same code path as SPIs and having normal interrupt handler for the local timer code.

The previous ad-hoc code is still supported when CONFIG_ARM_GIC_VPPI is not defined.

RFC PATCH v5 9/13 ARM: msm: use remapped PPI interrupts for local timer

In reply to Marc Zyngier

Use the normal interrupt scheme for the local timers by using a remapped PPI interrupt.

MSM already had a very similar scheme, though still mixing both GIC-specific and generic APIs.

RFC PATCH v5 12/13 ARM: gic: add compute_irqnr macro for exynos4

In reply to Marc Zyngier

exynos4 has a full copy of entry-macro-gic.S, just for the sake of an offset added to the IRQ number read from the GIC.

Add a compute_irqnr macro to entry-macro-gic.S so that any platform can add it's own hook without having to copy the whole file again.

Would it be better to select GIC_VPPI only if GIC is selected as well? So

select ARM_GIC_VPPI if ARM_GIC

Or put this select under ARM_GIC and have it be

select ARM_GIC_VPPI if SMP

?

Possibly.

No, I want to be able to select GIC_VPPI even on UP (A15x1 requires it, for exemple).

But in the end, if everybody agrees this whole series is sensible, I'd rather get rid of the option and make it a permanent feature (patch #11 removes gic_enable_ppi() anyway, making the use of naked PPIs tricky at best...).

That sounds even better.
