Hello Huisong, your raising of the shared interrupt issue is very timely, I
am working to implement "Extended PCC subspaces (types 3 and 4)" using PCC
on the ARM RDN2 reference platform as a proof of concept, and encountered
this issue as well. FWIW, I am currently testing using Sudeep's patch with
the "chan_in_use" flag removed, and so far have not encountered any issues.
Interesting, do you mean the patch I post in this thread but without the
whole chan_in_use flag ?
That's right, diff I'm running with is attached to end of message.
Hello Robbie, In multiple subspaces scenario, there is a problem
that OS doesn't know which channel should respond to the interrupt
if no this chan_in_use flag. If you have not not encountered any
issues in this case, it may be related to your register settings.
Hi Huisong, apologies, I see your point now concerning multiple subspaces.
I have started stress testing where I continuously generate both requests
and notifications as quickly as possible, and unfortunately found an issue
even with the original chan_in_use patch. I first had to modify the patch
to get the type 4 channel notifications to function at all, essentially
ignoring the chan_in_use flag for that channel. With that change, I still
hit my original stress issue, where the pcc_mbox_irq function did not
correctly ignore an interrupt for the type 3 channel.
The issue occurs when a request from AP to SCP over the type 3 channel is
outstanding, and simultaneously the SCP initiates a notification over the
type 4 channel. Since the two channels share an interrupt, both handlers
are invoked.
I've tried to draw out the state of the channel status "free" bits along
with the AP and SCP function calls involved.
type 3
------
(1)pcc.c:pcc_send_data()
| (5) mailbox.c:mbox_chan_receive_data()
_______v (4)pcc.c:pcc_mbox_irq()
free \_________________________________________

type 4 ^
------ ^
_____________________
free \_____________________________
^ ^
| |
(2)mod_smt.c:smt_transmit() |
|
(3)mod_mhu2.c:raise_interrupt()
The sequence of events are:
1) OS initiates request to SCP by clearing FREE in status and ringing SCP doorbell
2) SCP initiates notification by filling shared memory and clearing FREE in status
3) SCP notifies OS by ringing OS doorbell
4) OS first invokes interrupt handler for type 3 channel
At this step, the issue is that "val" from reading status (i.e. CommandCompleteCheck)
is zero (SCP has not responded yet) so the code below falls through and continues
to processes the interrupt as if the request has been acknowledged by the SCP.
if (val) { /* Ensure GAS exists and value is non-zero */
val &= pchan->cmd_complete.status_mask;
if (!val)
return IRQ_NONE;
}
The chan_in_use flag does not address this because the channel is indeed in use.
5) ACPI:PCC client kernel module is incorrectly notified that response data is
available
I added the following fix (applied on top of Sudeep's original patch for clarity)
for the issue above which solved the stress test issue. I've changed the interrupt
handler to explicitly verify that the status value matches the mask for type 3
interrupts before acknowledging them. Conversely, a type 4 channel verifies that
the status value does *not* match the mask, since in this case we are functioning
as the recipient, not the initiator.
One concern is that since this fundamentally changes handling of the channel status,
that existing platforms could be impacted.
