[PATCH 0/5] Enable per-port SATA interrupts and drop an hack in the IRQ subsystem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Some time ago, when the initial support for Armada CP110 was
contributed, the SATA core was not able to handle per-port
interrupts. Despite the hardware reality, the device tree only
represents one main interrupt for the two ports. Having both SATA
ports enabled at the same time has been achieved by a hack in the ICU
driver(1) that faked the use of the two interrupts, no matter which
SATA port was in use.

Now that the SATA core is ready to handle more than one interrupt,
this series adds support for it in the libahci_platform code. The
CP110 device tree must be updated to reflect the two SATA ports
available and their respective interrupts. To do not break DT backward
compatibility, the ahci_platform driver now embeds a special quirk
which checks if the DT is valid (only for A8k compatible) and, if
needed, creates the two missing sub-nodes, and assign them the
relevant "reg" and "interrupts" properties, before removing the main
SATA node "interrupts" one.


Thanks,
Miquèl

(1) The ICU is an irqchip aggregating the CP110 (south-bridge)
interrupts into MSIs for the AP806 (north-bridge).
