So it seems that your intention is to use the existing infrastructure for this by directing SGIs through the normal IRQ processing. To that idea, I say no way. I also think you need to think more about the changes you're making in your patch - several of them seem to have just been a case of s/32/0/ without any further thought whether that change is actually appropriate. Really, I'd suggest reading the GIC documentation, especially the bits about the first register being banked between each CPU. So changing the setup in the distributor initialisation is only going to hit the register on the CPU it's running on... -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: 5.8Mbps down 500kbps up.
