[PATCH 1/3] clocksource: exynos_mct: Fix stall after CPU hotplugging

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

 



Fix stall after hotplugging CPU1. Affected are SoCs where Multi Core Timer
interrupts are shared (SPI), e.g. Exynos 4210. The stall was a result of
starting the CPU1 local timer not in L1 timer but in L0 (which is used
by CPU0).

Trigger:
$ echo 0 > /sys/bus/cpu/devices/cpu1/online && echo 1 > /sys/bus/cpu/devices/cpu1/online

Stall information:

After turning off the CPU1, the MCT L1 local timer was disabled but the
interrupt was not cleared. Turning on the CPU1 enabled the IRQ
with setup_irq() but, before setting affinity to CPU1, the pending L1 timer
interrupt was processed by CPU0 in exynos4_mct_tick_isr().

The ISR then called event handler which set up the next timer event for
current CPU (CPU0). Therefore the MCT L1 timer wasn't actually started.

Fix the stall by:
1. Setting next timer event not on current CPU but on the CPU indicated
   by cpumask in 'clock_event_device'.
2. Clearing the timer interrupt upon stopping the local timer.

The patch also moves around the call to exynos4_mct_tick_stop() but this
is done only for the code readability as it is not essential for the fix.
