[PATCH] irqchip/gic-v5: Bring up and preserve the IRI link
Posted by Sascha Bischoff 3 weeks ago 
ICC_CR0_EL1 controls the link between the CPU interface and the IRI.
The driver currently writes absolute values when enabling and
disabling the interface. When EL3 is not present, this clears LINK and
can disconnect the link. Moreover, in this situation the kernel itself
might need to bring the link online.

Define the missing LINK and LINK_IDLE fields. Use read-modify-write
operations when changing EN so that the existing register state is
preserved.

During CPU interface initialisation, set LINK if it is clear and poll
LINK_IDLE before proceeding to enable interrupt
delivery. Propagate a link timeout through the CPU hotplug startup
callback.

Fixes: 7ec80fb3f025 ("irqchip/gic-v5: Add GICv5 PPI support")

After discussing this offline with Lorenzo and Marc, I've decided to
drop the setting of the LINK if it is inactive. This is not a case we
expect to see, so it makes little sense to add dead code to handle the
case.

Instead, I've re-spun this to just preserve the other bits in the
register when writing the EN bit (so, doing a read-modify-write).

v2 is here:
