[PATCH v4 0/5] New RISC-V Local Interrupt Controller Driver

From: Anup Patel
Date: Mon Mar 09 2020 - 07:02:50 EST


This patchset provides a new RISC-V Local Interrupt Controller Driver
for managing per-CPU local interrupts. The overall approach is inspired
from the way per-CPU local interrupts are handled by Linux ARM64 and
ARM GICv3 driver.

Few advantages of this new driver over previous one are:
1. It registers all local interrupts as per-CPU interrupts
2. The KVM RISC-V can use this driver to implement interrupt
handler for per-HART guest external interrupt defined by
the RISC-V H-Extension
3. In future, we can develop drivers for devices with per-HART
interrupts without changing arch code or this driver

With this patchset, output of "cat /proc/interrupts" looks as follows:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3
2: 379 0 0 0 SiFive PLIC 10 ttyS0
3: 591 0 0 0 SiFive PLIC 8 virtio0
5: 5079 10821 8435 12984 RISC-V INTC 5 riscv-timer
IPI0: 2045 2537 891 870 Rescheduling interrupts
IPI1: 9 269 91 168 Function call interrupts
IPI2: 0 0 0 0 CPU stop interrupts

The patchset is based up Linux-5.6-rc5 and can be found at riscv_intc_v4
branch of: https://github.com/avpatel/linux.git

Changes since v3:
- Rebased to Linux-5.6-rc5 and Atish's PLIC patches
- Added separate patch to rename and move plic_find_hart_id()
to arch directory
- Use riscv_of_parent_hartid() in riscv_intc_init() instead of
atomic counter

Changes since v2:
- Dropped PATCH2 since it was merged long-time back
- Rebased series from Linux-4.19-rc2 to Linux-5.6-rc2

Changes since v1:
- Removed changes related to puggable IPI triggering
- Separate patch for self-contained IPI handling routine
- Removed patch for GENERIC_IRQ kconfig options
- Added patch to remove do_IRQ() function
- Rebased upon Atish's SMP patches
