Most of the existing RISC-V platforms use SiFive CLINT to provide M-level timer and IPI support whereas S-level uses SBI calls for timer and IPI support. Also, the SiFive CLINT device is a single device providing both timer and IPI functionality so RISC-V platforms can't partially implement SiFive CLINT device and provide alternate mechanism for timer and IPI. The RISC-V Advacned Core Local Interruptor (ACLINT) tries to address the limitations of the SiFive CLINT by: 1) Taking modular approach and defining timer and IPI functionality as separate devices so that RISC-V platforms can include only required devices 2) Providing dedicated MMIO device for S-level IPIs so that SBI calls can be avoided for IPIs in Linux RISC-V 3) Allowing multiple instances of timer and IPI devices for a multi-socket (or multi-die) NUMA systems The RISC-V ACLINT specification is backward compatible to the SiFive CLINT so existing RISC-V platforms with SiFive CLINT are already compliant. Latest RISC-V ACLINT specification (is stable and will be frozen soon) can be found at: https://github.com/riscv/riscv-aclint/releases/download/v1.0-rc2/riscv-aclint-1.0-rc2.pdf This series adds RISC-V ACLINT support and can be found in the riscv_aclint_v4 branch at: https://github.com/avpatel/linux This series is tested on QEMU virt machine with both MMU and NoMMU Linux RISC-V kernel. Changes since v3: - Dropped PATCH which was updating SiFive CLINT DT bindings - Updated MTIMER, MSWI, and SSWI DT bindings to mandate a implmentation specific compatible strings - Added MTIMER and MSWI implementation specific compatible strings for existing platforms with SiFive CLINT - Call aclint_swi_init() from CLINT timer driver in PATCH9 when we are dealing with SiFive CLINT device Changes since v2: - Addresed Rob's comments on [M|S]SWI DT bindings - Dropped PATCH2 because it was not a required change - Addressed Marc's comments on ACLINT SWI driver added by PATCH7 - Added a separate PATCH6 to update SiFive CLINT DT bindings Changes since v1: - Added a new PATCH3 to treat IPIs as normal Linux IRQs for RISC-V kernel - New SBI IPI call based irqchip driver in PATCH3 which is only initialized by riscv_ipi_setup() when no Linux IRQ numbers are available for IPIs - Moved DT bindings patches before corresponding driver patches - Implemented ACLINT SWI driver as a irqchip driver in PATCH7 - Minor nit fixes pointed by Bin Meng Anup Patel (10): RISC-V: Clear SIP bit only when using SBI IPI operations 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 dt-bindings: interrupt-controller: Add ACLINT MSWI and SSWI bindings irqchip: Add ACLINT software interrupt driver RISC-V: Select ACLINT SWI driver for virt machine dt-bindings: timer: Add ACLINT MTIMER bindings clocksource: clint: Add support for ACLINT MTIMER device MAINTAINERS: Add entry for RISC-V ACLINT drivers .../riscv,aclint-swi.yaml | 97 ++++++ .../bindings/timer/riscv,aclint-mtimer.yaml | 67 +++++ MAINTAINERS | 10 + arch/riscv/Kconfig | 1 + arch/riscv/Kconfig.socs | 1 + arch/riscv/include/asm/sbi.h | 2 + arch/riscv/include/asm/smp.h | 49 ++- arch/riscv/kernel/Makefile | 1 + arch/riscv/kernel/cpu-hotplug.c | 3 +- arch/riscv/kernel/irq.c | 3 +- arch/riscv/kernel/sbi-ipi.c | 218 ++++++++++++++ arch/riscv/kernel/sbi.c | 15 - arch/riscv/kernel/smp.c | 167 ++++++----- arch/riscv/kernel/smpboot.c | 5 +- arch/riscv/mm/tlbflush.c | 91 ++++-- drivers/clocksource/timer-clint.c | 80 ++--- drivers/irqchip/Kconfig | 9 + drivers/irqchip/Makefile | 1 + drivers/irqchip/irq-riscv-aclint-swi.c | 282 ++++++++++++++++++ drivers/irqchip/irq-riscv-intc.c | 55 ++-- include/linux/irqchip/irq-riscv-aclint-swi.h | 19 ++ 21 files changed, 974 insertions(+), 202 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/interrupt-controller/riscv,aclint-swi.yaml create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/timer/riscv,aclint-mtimer.yaml create mode 100644 arch/riscv/kernel/sbi-ipi.c create mode 100644 drivers/irqchip/irq-riscv-aclint-swi.c create mode 100644 include/linux/irqchip/irq-riscv-aclint-swi.h -- 2.25.1
