Because non-secure timer interrupts was masked, usleep_range would not reponse. Aha! So nothing to do with with the SMMU at all. Your firmware has 'disabled' the interrupt by moving the CPUs priority mask so that no interrupts at all can be taken. I still think this is best fixed in firmware. Papering over the problem here is not enough as the handler may encounter memory corruption, take an exception, and panic() from some other part of the kernel. Its RAS - we know something has gone wrong before we get to this point. The OS needs to be able to call panic() at any point in time. Your firmware should not deny the normal-world interrupts like this. Please either complete the interrupt handling before calling into the normal world, or disable it if you need the interrupt to not fire again. If the device that triggers the interrupt doesn't have a disable, there are hardware registers in the GIC to do this. (I don't know how TFA works here, it may be a bug in the upstream code) Thanks, James
