Subject: [PATCH v4 1/5] arm64: Add framework to turn IPI as NMI

Introduce framework to turn an IPI as NMI using pseudo NMIs. In case a
particular platform doesn't support pseudo NMIs, then request IPI as a
regular IRQ.

The main motivation for this feature is to have an IPI that can be
leveraged to invoke NMI functions on other CPUs. And current prospective
users are NMI backtrace and KGDB CPUs round-up whose support is added
via future patches.

That's definitely the wrong thing to do. prepare_nmi_setup() shouldn't
be called twice, and papering over it isn't acceptable.

Got it. How about moving ipi_nmi_setup() from ipi_setup() to
secondary_start_kernel() ? so that CPU0 can call ipi_nmi_setup() only
from set_smp_ipi_nmi().

ipi_nmi_setup() may be called twice for CPU0:

set_smp_ipi_range => set_smp_ipi_nmi => ipi_nmi_setup
=> ipi_setup => ipi_nmi_setup

Actually, I got the following error message via the second ipi_nmi_setup():

GICv3: Pseudo-NMIs enabled using relaxed ICC_PMR_EL1 synchronisation
GICv3: Cannot set NMI property of enabled IRQ 8
genirq: Failed to setup NMI delivery: irq 8

Why don't we have a check to prevent that? Like as:

if (cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, ipi_desc->percpu_enabled))
return;

> +
> + if (is_nmi) {
> + if (!prepare_percpu_nmi(ipi_id))

It would be better to use IRQ_TYPE_NONE instead of 0.

enable_percpu_nmi(ipi_id, IRQ_TYPE_NONE);

> + } else {
> + enable_percpu_irq(ipi_id, 0);

Same as here:
enable_percpu_irq(ipi_id, IRQ_TYPE_NONE);

Ah, thanks for catching this which I missed during my testing.

IMO, it would be more consistent to keep invocation of ipi_nmi_setup()
from ipi_setup(). So let me remove other invocation from
set_smp_ipi_nmi():

diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/ipi_nmi.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/ipi_nmi.c

-
- /* Setup the boot CPU immediately */
- ipi_nmi_setup(smp_processor_id());
}

Do let me know if this works for you?
