[RFC PATCH v1 0/3] IPI and remote TBL flush improvement

From: Anup Patel
Date: Thu Mar 11 2021 - 11:48:15 EST


This series primarily does two things:
1. Allows RISC-V IPI provider to specificy whether IPI operations are
suitable for remote TLB flush (PATCH1)
2. Improve remote TLB flush to use IPIs whenever possible (PATCH2)
3. Allow irqchip drivers to handle IPIs from chained IRQ handlers (PATCH3)

This series also a preparatory series for upcoming RISC-V advanced
interrupt architecture (AIA) support.

These patches can be found in riscv_ipi_imp_v1 branch at
https://github.com/avpatel/linux

Anup Patel (3):
RISC-V: IPI provider should specify if we can use IPI for remote FENCE
RISC-V: Use IPIs for remote TLB flush when possible
RISC-V: Add handle_IPI_noregs() for irqchip drivers
