Commit Message

Heinrich Schuchardt Aug. 17, 2022, 1:25 p.m. UTC
The "PolarFire SoC MSS Technical Reference Manual" documents the
following PLIC interrupts:

1 - L2 Cache Controller Signals when a metadata correction event occurs
2 - L2 Cache Controller Signals when an uncorrectable metadata event occurs
3 - L2 Cache Controller Signals when a data correction event occurs
4 - L2 Cache Controller Signals when an uncorrectable data event occurs

This differs from the SiFive FU540 which only has three L2 cache related
interrupts.

The sequence in the device tree is defined by an enum:

    enum {
            DIR_CORR = 0,
            DATA_CORR,
            DATA_UNCORR,
            DIR_UNCORR,
    };

So the correct sequence of the L2 cache interrupts is

    interrupts = <1>, <3>, <4>, <2>;

Hey Heinrich,
Interesting CC list you got there! Surprised the mailmap didn't sort
out Atish & Krzysztof's addresses, but I think I've fixed them up.
 I see Daire isn't there either so +CC him too.

Nit: more accurately by the dt-binding:
  interrupts:
    minItems: 3
    items:
      - description: DirError interrupt
      - description: DataError interrupt
      - description: DataFail interrupt
      - description: DirFail interrupt

I do find the names in the enum to be a bit more understandable however,
and ditto for the descriptions in our TRM... Maybe I should put that on
my todo list of cleanups :)

This looks correct to me. You mentioned on IRC that what you were seeing
was a wall of
L2CACHE: DataFail @ 0x00000000.0807FFD8
From a quick look at the driver, what seems to be happening here is that
at some point (possibly before Linux even comes into the picture) there
is an uncorrectable data error. Because the ordering in the dt is wrong,
we read the wrong register and so the interrupt is never actually
cleared. With this patch applied, I see a single DataFail right as the
interrupt gets registed & nothing after that.

I am not really sure what value there is in enabling that driver though,
mostly just seems like a debugging tool & from our pov we would see the
HSS running in the monitor core as being responsible for handling the
l2-cache errors.

@Daire, maybe you have an opinion here?

Patch LGTM, so I'll likely apply it in the next day or two, would just
like to see what Daire has to say first.

BTW, it isn't really fixing this patch right? This is a dependency for
backports to 5.15.

Thanks for your patch,
Conor.

Likewise. The new ordering of the interrupts to what the driver expects
looks correct - as far as it goes. However, I'm not convinced enabling
the SiFive l2 cache driver out of the box makes sense. Using l2 cache
driver doesn't align terribly well with the current MPFS roadmap for
mgt of ECC errors.

If l2-cache controller is enabled, then interrupts should be connected
as per TRM.  I think this specific patch lgtm, ideally with a
'disabled' stanza and it's up to individual MPFS customers/boards to
enable l2 cache controller if they want it.

Disabling the device in the device-tree is orthogonal to fixing the 
interrupt sequence. I would suggest that you use a separate patch for 
adding status = "disabled";.

Aye, not wrong there. At least from me, it was an observation on the
way you discovered that the bug existed. I'll apply this patch today
so - thanks for fixing it!

Added the impact of the bug & applied to dt-fixes, thanks!
