So I did some experiments, playing around with registers. Based on my observation, I think this is what happens: For each GPT timer, it has ENABLE, IRQ_EN, IRQ status, IRQ_ACK, counter & compare. When mtk_timer_init calls mtk_timer_setup to setup GPT_CLK_EVT, it enable the timer but didn't set counter or compare. Both counter & compare is zero on reset, so GPT immediately raise IRQ status. IRQ_EN is still disabled now, so it didn't trigger interrupt right away. At end of mtk_timer_init, it calls mtk_timer_enable_irq to enable irq. Since IRQ status is 1 now, GPT trigger interrupt immediately. The interrupt is serviced by mtk_timer_interrupt. Since this is not an expected event, evt->dev.event_handler will be NULL and system crashed in the handler. > >>> When irq is enabled afterward, we see > >>> spurious interrupt. > > Doesn't have the firmware something to do with that ? We have 6 GPT on mt8173, mtk timer use 2 of them. The spurious interrupt only happens on GPT_CLK_EVT (GPT1). Our firmware didn't touch that one, so it is in reset default when mtk timer driver try to enable it. > I have a mtk 8173 board I can use next week.

Yes. If you applied this series to enable mtk timer without this fix on mt8173 or mt8135 you can reproduce it. It occurs for every boot. It crash before uart driver is ready, so you'll have to use earlycon to see the crash log. > The previous patches were supposed to fix the issue but they actually > didn't. So how is tested the patch ? I'm not sure. I believe Matthias test that one on mt6589, maybe it have different behavior, or different timing. > Regarding the different fixes for this problem, it sounds like you are > proceeding by trial and error. > > Please give a more detailed analysis of the problem and especially check > the timer is not altered by the firmware leaving it in a transient state > or whatever. See above for my analysis. Thanks.
