This series aims to improve IPI support in Linux RISC-V in following ways:
1) Treat IPIs as normal per-CPU interrupts instead of having custom RISC-V
specific hooks. This also makes Linux RISC-V IPI support aligned with
other architectures.
2) Remote TLB flushes and icache flushes should prefer local IPIs instead
of SBI calls whenever we have specialized hardware (such as RISC-V AIA
IMSIC and RISC-V SWI) which allows S-mode software to directly inject
IPIs without any assistance from M-mode runtime firmware.
These patches were originally part of the "Linux RISC-V ACLINT Support"
series but this now a separate series so that it can be merged independently
of the "Linux RISC-V ACLINT Support" series.
(Refer, https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/)
These patches are also a preparatory patches for the up-coming:
1) Linux RISC-V AIA support
2) KVM RISC-V TLB flush improvements
3) Linux RISC-V SWI support
These patches can also be found in riscv_ipi_imp_v5 branch at:
https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git
Changes since v4:
- Rebased on Linux-5.17
- Includes new PATCH3 which adds mechanism to multiplex a single HW IPI
Changes since v3:
- Rebased on Linux-5.17-rc6
- Updated PATCH2 to not export riscv_set_intc_hwnode_fn()
- Simplified riscv_intc_hwnode() in PATCH2
Changes since v2:
- Rebased on Linux-5.17-rc4
- Updated PATCH2 to not create synthetic INTC fwnode and instead provide
a function which allows drivers to directly discover INTC fwnode
Changes since v1:
- Use synthetic fwnode for INTC instead of irq_set_default_host() in PATCH2
Anup Patel (7):
RISC-V: Clear SIP bit only when using SBI IPI operations
irqchip/riscv-intc: Allow drivers to directly discover INTC hwnode
genirq: Add mechanism to multiplex a single HW IPI
RISC-V: Treat IPIs as normal Linux IRQs
RISC-V: Allow marking IPIs as suitable for remote FENCEs
RISC-V: Use IPIs for remote TLB flush when possible
RISC-V: Use IPIs for remote icache flush when possible
