Subject: [PATCH] irq/gic-its: gicv4: set VPENDING table as inner-shareable

There is no special reason to set virtual LPI pending table as
non-shareable. If we choose to hard code the shareability without
probing, inner-shareable will be a better choice, for all the other
ITS/GICR tables prefer to be inner-shareable.

What's more, on Hisilicon hip08 it will trigger some kind of bus
warning when mixing use of different shareabilities.

One of the issues is that we have strictly no idea what the caches are
Inner Shareable with (I've been asking for such clarification for years
without getting anywhere). You can have as many disconnected inner
shareable domains as you want!

I suspect that in the grand scheme of things, the redistributors
ought to be in the same inner shareable domain, and that with a bit of
luck, the CPUs are there as well. Still, that's a massive guess.

Do you have more information about what the bus is complaining about?
Is that because the CPUs have these pages mapped as inner shareable?

I'll give it a go on D05 (HIP07) to find out what changes there.

Thanks,

Hisilicon HIP07 and HIP08 are compliant with ARM SBSA and have only one
inner shareable domain in the whole system.

What will happen if a system has multiple inner shareable domains? Will
Linux still work on such system? Can we declare that Linux only supports
one single inner shareable domain?

Actually HIP08 L3 Cache will complain on any non-shareable cache entry,
for the data coherence cannot be guarenteed for such configuration. This
also implies VPENDING table will be allocated and snooped in L3 cache.

I'm glad these systems are well designed, but that's not what SBSA
mandates.

All it requires is that the all PEs are part of the same IS domain, and
that PCIe is part of the same IS domain as the PEs. Nothing more, and
certainly nothing about the GIC. Or anything else.

Linux works just fine as long as all the PEs are in the same IS domain.
There is no architectural requirement for anything else to be in that
domain.

It really looks odd that L3 would even contain non-shareable entries.

Anyway, I don't think that's a biggy. Given that GICv4 is almost
exclusively implemented on these two SoCs (unless someone revives
QC system), I think we can take this change after some testing.

Sorry it took so long. I've given it a go on my D05, and didn't notice
anything bad (or rather, nothing worse than usual, since GICv4 on this
machine is pretty... funky).

I've now take this into the 5.7 queue.

Thanks,

irqchip/gic-v4: Use Inner-Shareable attributes for virtual pending tables

There is no special reason to set virtual LPI pending table as
non-shareable. If we choose to hard code the shareability without
probing, Inner-Shareable is likely to be a better choice, as the
VPEs can move around and benefit from having the redistributors
snooping each other's cache, if that's something they can do.

Furthermore, Hisilicon hip08 ends up with unspecified errors when
mixing shareability attributes. So let's move to IS attributes for
the VPT. This has also been tested on D05 and didn't show any
regression.
